I'd like to use an SSOP 20 packaged 16F627A in a project. I have a = picstart plus, but no programming adapter for an SSOP20. I would like to solder the SSOP20 into my PCB and program it = "in-circuit" using my picstart plus (also I may need to change the=20 firmware later to correct for bugs). - Is the in-circuit programming of the 16F627A the same hookup, voltages = and algorithm that the picstart plus uses? (can I just jumper over the 5 pins needed for in-circuit programming = from the picstart plus?) Thanks. The microchip website didn't list the picstart plus as being = able to program in-circuit, but I suspect that is just because they = don't offer a hookup cable.
