USB PIC 'IN-CIRCUIT' PROGRAMMER AND DEBUGGER

  • PRODUCT NAME:

  • USB PIC 'IN-CIRCUIT' PROGRAMMER AND DEBUGGER

  • ART NO:

  • PICKIT3

  • Description:

  • Microchip's PICkit 3 In-Circuit Debugger/Programmer uses in-circuit debugging logic incorporated into each chip with Flash memory to provide a low-cost hardware debugger and programmer. The MPLAB PICkit 3 allows debugging and programming of PIC® and dsPIC® Flash microcontrollers at a most affordable price point using the powerful graphical user interface of the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The MPLAB PICkit 3 is connected to the design engineer's PC using a full speed USB interface and can be connected to the target via a Microchip debug (RJ-11) connector (compatible with MPLAB ICD 2, MPLAB ICD 3, and MPLAB REAL ICE). The connector uses two device I/O pins and the reset line to implement in-circuit debugging and In-Circuit Serial Programming™.

    You can download the latest version of MPLAB software and ask product support via www.microchip.com. The supported PIC microcontrollers are indicated in the MPLAB software.
