al. How to connect PIC32MZ2048ECH100 PIM to a standard PCB or Velleman K8055N-2 experiment board?

There is also an alternative. You may buy a fully assembled PIM (plug-in module) which incorporates the oscillator circuit and some other discrete electronic components, like capacitors and some setup switches. But don't get confused by the photos on the right hand side. Spacing between the soldered contacts on the board rim is just 1.27 mm, which is twice less than 2.54 mm (1/10 of an inch) spacing that is normally used for through whole components. There are also 4 female ladder connectors with 1.27 mm spacing on the bottom side. The best option is to buy mail 4 25-contacts male ladder connectors and use them to connect PIM to your circuit.

But this is not trivial! One still has to cope with 1.27 mm spacing between pins. 2.54 mm distance may be achieved by bending odd and even contacts on the soldering side of the ladder connector to left and right respectively.
