Hello,
is PIC16F88 pin-compatible with PIC16F84A for programming???
As seen in datasheet, they are, but this F88 supports low and high - voltage programming.
I have a veeery simple PIC16F84A serial programming interface (only 2 resistors) so I was wondering could I just plugin the new PIC16F88 and program it (I use IC-Prog, but since it does not support F88 chip, i found a new one which also uses serial interface. It is called DL4YHF's PIC Programmer for Windows (WinPicProg)). (In IC-Prog my serial programming interface is set as to be JDM Programmer.)
I am afraid that I would burn the chip if it is not compatible with the famous PIC16F84 (for programming).
What do you think?
All best,
Trax
