According to the MC website any REV above 5 that is the -RXX after the serial number on the back of the plastic enclosure can be upgraded to the latest flash firmware. It a great pity the kit is out of stock from MC till the 12th of July. This is holding up my project as I am having a problem with the 'A' part (pic16F628A). My MPLAB is not showing the 'A' part for the pic16F628. Could this be the problem? It will program fine for the first time then fail after that. I cannot erase also. This was tested across 12 different parts. z ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jinx" To: Sent: 21 June 2004 21:42 Subject: Re: [PIC]:Old PICSTART PLUS > > I have a Picstart Plus I bought in 1996 > > Me too, R8 > > > Does anyone know if it can still be updated with new firmware > > Mine's had 17C44s to 3.11, and now Flash (UK003010) > > -- > http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics > (like ads or off topics) for you.
