Someone ask me if real ICE is a helpfull device for developing prototypes. As long I have never use it, my impressions are based on ICE and ICD2 datasheets. The explanation I've found is on page 8 of ICD2 datasheet: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/51331B.pdf If there is any ICE user here, I really appreciate any information about how good emulation is providing the real ICE (mostly for PIC16F series) and if there is a real benefit in using ICE (as a real emulator) instead of ICD2. thx, -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
