03 Apr 2007 2:05 rs232 non-serial port

Yesterday I've done a PIC programmer that I found on the net.

It is based on KIT 149bc. I connect it to my laptop that has no serial port. Run the software and it works.

The original diagram was modified. I remove the FTDI chip because I'm planning to use a USB to RS232 converter cable that I have. The pcb I made was single sided.

I've tried many serial programmer but this is the only one that works with a USB to RS232 converter cable.

My Inchworm ICD2 works fine with the PL2303 USB to serial adapter. Just have to use the right driver.

You should post the firmware for the 16F84A, although like my Inchworm+ you still need to get the chip programmed.

Has anyone got PCB layout files & schematics available for one of these that they can share?
Cheers.

You may download DIY pack of similar programmer including circuits, description and the firmwares from the given link below
http://www.kitsrus.com/pdf/k149d_intro.pdf

OR

You may also consider building a PicKit2 clone which directly communicates with the USB port of the PC where no drivers are required as the programmer is Compatible with MPLAB. Find more more info at these below mentioned links.
