I made my own programmer for LVP and LVICSP and simply made sure it was compatible with the Schaer programmer in IC-prog :-) This turned out to be a great solution and it always works. I may post some schematics and layouts later. (Need some polishing hehe.) I've tested it with 16F628 and 16F627 with no problems. There doesn't seem to be much to gain from using LVP??? You loose a port or more no matter what :-( KreAture ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gavin Jacobs" To: Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 2:35 AM Subject: Re: pic programmer circuit > Wouter, > I like the design of the wisp628 because it puts the timing close to the target chip, and provides an easy-to-use serial interface > for the PC.
