programming pic with pickit 3 Help??
« on: March 18, 2010, 09:12:42 AM »
For people that don't know this is the pickit 3 and i was wondering is there is a tutorial on how to program the pic with the pickit 3 with topfire. Also i want it to be a step by step picture tutorial if not then a written one will be fine.

I don't have a tutorial, but its common sense. Here is a img of the pic pinouts, and google an image of pickit 3 pinouts, then wire them to some header pins which connect to a dip socket.

so you will have to make a different one for 8pin, 16pin ect.
this is what I got, 3mins to build (I wasn't going to waste my loved 8pin sockets was I)
I belive this is the best way, only 2 jumper wires to be soldered to the board. Scratch on left hand side of ic headers, lines up with the arrow on the pic kit.

I am willing to be it is the same as pickit 2, don't see why they would change the configuration of their icp headers. plus that dev board looks identical to the one I got with the kit 2.

Hey Ghost, what are the jumper wires for? Like how is the thing wired together? Or is it as straight-forward as wiring the header pins to the corresponding pins on the socket and that's all I have to do?

yea, the jumpers were just to get the data/power lines from some of the headers to the corresponding pin on the dip socket. I managed to fit the socket in so only two jumpers were needed and the rest ran directly from the header.

Wait I don't get it... Why did u need jumpers to get the data/power lines to the headers? Couldn't you just conect them directly to the header like the rest of the pins?
