[Kirill] wrote in to share his Arduino-based PIC programmer. It is capable of writing to the 18F family of chips, including 18F2XXX and 18F4XXX. We think that’s pretty exciting because this line of ...

💡 Note: Some PIC microcontrollers require 12V on MCLR for high-voltage programming. If this is the case, you might need an external 12V circuit.

It is recommended to isolate programmer from battery circuit. I did not do any intense research in that manner but for safety i have utilized 220ohm resistors at clock and data lines. "Test PIC" will ...

Before the Arduino took over the hobby market (well, at least the 8-bit segment of it), most hackers used PIC processors. They were cheap, easy to program, had a good toolchain, and were at the heart ...

Since you lacked the USB interface in your own Arduino board, it becomes necessary to use a homemade/ready-made USB to Serial Converter Module as an efficient and economical solution. Inexpensive and ...
