One idea that was posted here(I think) is to get one of those SOIC test clips that clamp on the IC to bring out the pins for probe attachment. Solder wires from the probe posts to a header type socket. Plug the socket into the burner and insert the IC into the test clip(upside down). > Hi All > > I have been programming with PICSTART+ programmer and MPLAB for quite a > while.
