New Firmware version 1.50.00 released and required for support of PIC12C671, PIC12C672, PIC12CE673, PIC12CE674. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Important Notes ----------------------------------------------------------------- Users of PICSTART Plus firmware version 1.50 are strongly urged to upgrade their firmware to the current release. Communications errors can occur with firmware versions earlier than 1.50. We suggest you contact your sales office to obtain an upgrade. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Programming PIC18C658/858 Devices ----------------------------------------------------------------- From ETN #23: Problem: PIC18C658 and 18C858 devices cannot be programmed by the PICSTART Plus because they do not match the PICSTART Plus socket. Solution: To program the PIC18C658 and 18C858 devices using the PICSTART Plus programmer, you need to build an adapter that will make the part look like the 40-pin PIC18CXXX devices. The device pins below should be attached to the PICSTART Plus as noted. Note: You must connect all VDD/VSS lines on the PIC18C658/858, as all are needed to power the chip correctly.
