Different devices have different specs. It's not really just two pins, you need to supply power, ground, and a program signal. But once that's done, you shift the programming commands in using two pins. On one pin (program data), you set the bit to be shifted, on the other pin (program clock) you toggle the levels to shift the data bit in. > Where can I find the serial programmers ?? and how do they work ?? Read the articles by Myke Predko at www.rentron.com/pic.htm for a much better explanation and a simple programmer (for the 16F84) circuit. -greg
