My first programmer software only supported one PIC, the 16C84 - which was the only electronically reprogrammable one at that time. Or Visual BASIC?.īiggest problem with PIC programming software is the huge variety of different devices, along with a goodly number of different programming algorithms, this is why the PICkits continually download updates to their firmware as you switch between different devices. A good choice for you would probably be Lazaruz, which is essentially a free version of Delphi. My 'claim to fame' was writing the worlds first Windows PIC programming software, long before MicroChip ever did any, and I wrote it in Delphi 1.0 moving on from my earlier Turbo Pascal version. PICkit3 Programmer Application from Microchip ported to Linux - GitHub - langbeck/pickit3-programmer: PICkit3 Programmer Application from Microchip. It's pretty easy to program PIC's, you just wiggle pins up and down, but why limit yourself to low voltage?.ĭoing it with a processor (like the Arduino) makes it even easier, as it's far easier to 'wiggle pins' on a micro-controller than on a 'modern' PC - old PC's DOS and upto Win3.1 were fine, but after that things got more difficult.
