hi everybody,
I am planning to use a pic16F628 and before that I look for a programmer th=
at I can build easily, so I found the elcheapo (the circuit works for 16F62=
8).
My question is about the circuit schematics:
http://www.myke.com/elcheapo.htm
As it said in the programming specification, this pic can be used in two pr=
gramming mode: LV(low voltage) or HV(high voltage). and for each of these m=
odes, we have to respect a rule when powering up the pic (a certain steps, =
example for HV: raising first Vpp then Vdd). in this example, the elcheapo =
use a HV  and it seems to me that it doesn't respect this rule.
Can anyone help to unsertand this issue?
I have also another question, if any of you have a source code examples for=
 the software that drives a pic programmer circuit, and want to share it, p=
lease send me a link.
thank you in advance
best regards,



Mustapha ELKEJBOUT
