PIC programming software

[ljcox]

I have used Icprog to programme PICs for many years.

However, I recently purchased a 16F684 and it is not covered by Icprog.

Does anyone know how I can add a 16F684 to Icprog?

If not, does anyone know of other PIC programming software that is free?

Any assistance will be appreciated.

For microchip the best choice is Pickit2/3, but I recomend you to forget about PIC and start using STM8. Debugger cost 5$ and cover all stm8/stm32 microcontrollers, allow you to debug your code in realtime. Debugging is imposible with your icprog and even with Pickit is also difficult.

Thanks very much for the links.

This version of WinPic works with Windows 7 & includes all of the PICs I want.

Thanks for the response.

I don't need a debugger. I do my debugging in MPLAB SIM.

I have plenty of PICs on hand, so I don't want to start again with a new device.

I ve used USBPICPROG for many years and it did program all. Pic microcontrollers including PIC16F684
