[sdiy] PIC advice needed (OT)

[Harry Bissell]

Hi All...

I need to get some help with a PIC design. Maybe someone here has some insight.

I need a reference design for a PIC18F series chip. I'm looking for what glue might be needed, programming header, thongs like that.

What tools are available for free, for cheap, and for $$$ (but fast to get up on) ?

I have an MPLAB ICD2 at my disposal

Don't ask what I'm doing, if I knew I'd be bragging instead of begging :^)
