There has been such an interest in 16C84 programming lately that readers may
like to know I have just issued a kit - Kit 81 - with ALL components
(including a 16C84-10/P) & software to start programming.

The 16C84 has fast become the entry point for beginners & hobbyists into uC
programming. Charles Manning published a design in Electronics Australia,
April 1996. It plugs into the parallel port of a PC.

Features:
- software is only for the 16C84.
- software can verify, load & read
- EEPROM space, program space & config fuses can be treated separately
- separate device Erase command
- Test command to test programmer hardware
- Vpp under software control
- 9V battery powered
- 16C8x Data Sheets on floppy disk
- INHX8M file format support

Full schematic, manual & instructions for beginners supplied. Components to
write your first program (flash an LED) also included. So you can build the
programmer & test it all in the one session. (You will just need a
breadboard & battery.)

As a one-time offer to readers here (until the kit gets to my distributors)
I offer the Kit at $US20 + postage. This is about half the normal price.
