[sdiy] PIC advice needed (OT)

[m.bareille at free.fr]

Hi Harry,

Here are the tools i  am using to programm and burn PICs : They ar echeap , free
, and the hardware programmer is DIY and it work perfectly with almost all PICs
from the 10F up to the 18F ...

The programmer description is here :
http://m.bareille.free.fr/mbpicprommer/mbpicprom.html

To write and assemble/compile i use the MPLabIDE  see Microchip web site

To burn Hex files ( produced by the assembler) into the PIC i use respectively :
-ICProg rev 1.05 for PIC 16Fxxx
-IC prog rev 1.06A fro PIC >= 18Fxxx
OR

-WinPIC for all models of PICs ( use the 7407PNP driver wit my hardware ...) and
specialy the 10 or 12F series.


18Fxxx headers  are usualy automaticaly loaded by the MPLab when you declare
your project . Else you can find specific includes files into the MPLabs
directories...

Quite personal , but my favorite  PIC 18F are
-18F452   the base in 40 pins
-18F4520  improved 452 ...
-18F2320  28 pins version

Avoid PIC# who are not recognised by your burner sotfware, the burn could be
extremely tricky (  if not impossible) with them.

Good luck !
