pic icsp header

hi bimbla.
why have you used 2 diferent MCLR (MCLR1 and MCLR2 connected PR6 and PR7).
i know how to connect pic16 family to icsp. like that : https://www.sprut.de/electronic/pic/icsp/icsp.htm
but i don't know pic18 family. how can we connect the pic18 PICs to ICSP header(for example is it necessary to connect number pin 32 and pin 31 for 18f452) .
and a question about PGM pin. have we to connect to PGM pin to GND even if we disabled low voltage programing fuse.

which pin to short to clear 24c16 eeprom

One MCLR pin each goes to the on- board ZIF Socket and the header for connection to external PIC. The resistors only provide isolation between the two.

Yes it is necessary to connect pins 31 and 32 for 18F452.

For low voltage programming, you will need a different circuit.

hi,
finally I can present my latest ICD2 design. not many changes were made since my last posts.
a few error corrections, some layout enhancements and the possibility to power target boards directly over USB. I also wrote a short documentation.

this design is fully tested!

I hope this is useful to you and feel free to send any comments.

enjoy.

regards, jenda

icsp for pic 18f452

Hai
How to connect PC to this circuit .I understand that it from Com.
But how? please clarify.

Hi Picstudent

You can connect ICD2 to the PC using a crossed RS232 (null modem) or a standard USB cable. Does this answer your question?

I am afraid not.
I think I confused you.I was asking about the programmer mentioned at the top of this post.
It is mentioned that we can use this programmer with ICPROG in JDM mode. So the serial port have to be connected to this board .I want the details of that interface .Hope you got it.
I want this programmer to work without ICD2 so that ICD2 wont be sitting idle just as a programmer.
Thanks for the response

icsp pour 18f452

Hi

Sorry for the confusion.

Concerning ICPROG: I never used it and therefore do not know much about it.

Hello PICStudent,

My circuit is the interface between PC serial port and the microcontroller
The 9-pin connector connects to the PC serial port, while the 10-pin header connects to the respective pins (RB6, RB7, MCLR and GND) on the uC board.

I hope that it is clear now.

Ask again if not.

Regards,

bimbla.

icsp 18f

Hai
I have done the ICSP programmer,but some problems.
the hardware check on icprog gives correct results.
But cannot programe correctly,only the location 0000 is getting programmed ,but offcourse with a wrong value.

I have some doubts regarding that.

When programming voltage is applied the MCLR pin is going high to 12.65 volts as required. but the programmer is not able to pull the MCLR pin to GND,because the MCLR is driven by the collector of the switching transistor.The MCLR pin is always at 4.65v by the pull up in the application circuit.

Should the MCLR pin have to be pulled down by the programmer to GND during programming or that pin is to be swing only betwen VDD and VPP.

Please guide me .It is urgent

icsp pic18f circuit

The programmer is working fine for me. I am working on 18F452. However I have friends who are also working on other chips.
When the MCLR pin makes transition, the reset capasitor acts as short for short time and pulls MCLR to GND.

However, you CAN pull the reset resistor to GND (instead of VCC) when programming.

I hope that this helps.

Uploaded is the OrCAD schematic and Layout for the board.

The board is single sided, jumperless measuring 1.8" X 1.8"

Have fun.

icsp pic circuit

hi bimbla.

could you please tell me that, is it possible to program a pic with 5v (supply voltage) instead of programming voltage that is of 12 v

thanks

Is that ICSP work with MPLAB ?
