Title: programmer problems
Post by: wingswest on March 23, 2010, 04:42:27 PM: How do I insert my 12F683 chips into my JDM prorgammer. I can't find any references to this to save my life. I am really wanting to try out topfire.

Thanks :victory:

Edit: Started messing with it. WinPic reads the chip and it programs and verifys okay. Now I need to put one into a controller.

the board looks fine.. the software u use will tell you where the chip goes... or how it lines up in th programmer....

Does this programmer support the PIC? if it doesnt you will need to do a little bit of tampering.. running wires from the CLK/DAT/MCLR lines to the actual pic.

Post by: wingswest on March 26, 2010, 08:41:30 PM: I used WinPic800. Any other suggestions? I used the 8 pins closest and it appeared to flash the pic correctly. I have yet to put it into the controller. The option in the software to show where the pic is supposed to go into the board never would show up for me, said "not available".
