Hi all,
I also built an IC2 clone based on Lothar Stolz schematics. But it doesn't work. Below is the error message:
Connecting to MPLAB ICD 2
ICD0021: Unable to connect with MPLAB ICD 2
ICD0021: Unable to connect with MPLAB ICD 2
MPLAB ICD 2 Ready
I tried many bootloader which including the one attached in this topic. I used 16F877A instead of 16F876A. I checked the voltage of Max232 Pin2 and Pin6 is normally 10V and -10V. But the voltage of MCLR of PIC is always oV. Is it normal?
I also try this on many version of Mplad including 6.3, 6.4,6.6 and 7.1. I am not sure which version should be suitable for ICD2 R232.
Anyone can help me? Thanks!
