Hi Erik, Apart from the 24LC16 your requirements match my WISP programmer. Take a look at www.xs4all.nl/~wf/wouter/pic/wisp : - user interface on a PC - serial communication (multiple WISPs can be on one serial line) - in-circuit programming - programming, VPP generation etc. done by a 16x84 - production programming possible after one-time calibration (stred in eeprom) - serial cmmunication with the target is posible (e.g. for debugging) - relatively simple hardware (100 pins) - schematics, hardware and software available I think 24LC16 programming is no big deal so it could easily be added. regards, Wouter. ---------- > From: S.H.S. > To: PICLIST@MITVMA.MIT.EDU > Subject: Ad: Job offer: PIC-programming project > Date: Sunday, June 28, 1998 01:01 > > I would need someone to write the firmware for a processor-based > PIC-programmer (i.e. a PIC that in turn programs PIC's!).
