Hi,
I'm electronics pro but newbi with programming devices. I use maplb to program a pic12f629.
I have the HEX file but I can't open it with mplab and I need to transcribe this file to others new PICs.
I have checksum number too, coming from the programer of the PIC.
I use a MPLAB PM3 from Microchip to program.
How can I write the HEX code in my chip and what I am suppose to do with those Checksum numbers???
Thank you,
If you are using the PM3 from MPlab then you File Import the .hex file - as detailed in the PM3 user manual.
You can also read in the .hex file and Dissasemble it, but this code very difficult to make sense of as all the notation normally shown in the source code is stripped out when it is complied into the .hex code.
If you want to program the same types of chips with the same code that easy enough.
If you want to program the code into a different type of chip then you will probably need the source code and suitabley modify it for the new type of chip.
