I am building a few inexpensive RS232 only ICD2s for my students and would like to power them from the target/breadboard power supply. This seems to work but I am a bit concerned.
I recall reading that the Microchip ICD2 must power up prior to the target and should not be powered by the target.
Readme for MPLAB ICD 2
Does anyone understand what the issue might be.

NOTE: MPLAB ICD 2 must be powered BEFORE power is applied to the target application.
