Our new "BB0703+128K" and "BB0703+256K" are now available for immediate shipment.

This is the second generation design based on our popular "BB0703" (PICKit 2 based) products.

The "BB0703+128K" and "BB0703+256K" come with all enhanced feature of "BB0703", plus the following new enhanced features:

1. Buck/Boost voltage regulation circuits are now standard on all "BB0703+" family. This feature guarantees the ICSP programming working correctly even when USB power supply dropped down to 3V.

2. Native support of 256K EEPROM on "BB0703+256K", no hardware hack is necessary to take the advantage of 256K memory for programmer-to-go (PTG) feature.

Other major features:

*Full implement of Microchip-recommended PICkit 2 circuits
*plus unique enhanced features such as: external power supply, RJ12 interface, buck/boost voltage regulator etc.
*Well designed hardware, no "Vpp pumping" is required
*Dimension:3" L x 1.72"W x 0.81"H (77 x 43.5 x 20.5 mm)
*Color: PC white or Black
*USB power supply: 5V 100 mA
*USB connector: Type B or Mini-B
*Enhanced extra power supply (Optional): 9V 100 mA, positive center
*ICSP interface: RJ12 6-Pin
*Chip support: baseline (PIC10F, PIC12F5xx, PIC16F5xx), midrange (PIC12F6xx, PIC16F), PIC18F, PIC24, dsPIC30, dsPIC33, PIC32, and Microchip Serial EEPROM products
*A RJ12 6 pin reverse cable included, BB0703+ can work directly with board developed for ICD2/ICD3/RealICE for programming and/or debugging
