Its a Pickit 2 clone. It will work just fine. But you will want to get the ICP03 ziff zocket to go with it. Or the ICA03 is both the progra and the socket bundled.You can use it directly with MPLAB (if you are coding) or a standalone program for just programming the hex files.
yes, get the set its what i have. it will program the 12f just fine. it comes with the pickit2 software for programing.
