Junebug Name & Calibration program (BETA) - Electronic Circuits Projects Diagrams Free

blueroomelectronics · 7th May 2008, 03:49 AM

This program is designed to set the VDD calibration data (it's erased when you name the Junebug with the PICkit2 software)
A calibrated Junebug can program 3.3V PICs that have 5V tolerant I/O like the 18F67J60 (target must have its own 3.3V power supply)
You use the Junebugs bootloader feature to install the hex file this program creates (hold down the button near pin1 on the 18F2550) before plugging in the USB cable.
After it runs (about 2 sec) unplug the Junebug, close PICkit2 2.50 and hold down the bootloader button and plug in the USB cable. Reload PICkit2 2.50
and install the PICkit2 OS.
This program is in testing at this point, do not change anything unless you understand how the PICkit2 bootloader function.

Code:

; Change only the data in the two following defines
#define MyJune  "Super Junebug" ; Junebug name <= 15 bytes
#define VCal    0xFA81          ; 4.2V Calibration 0x02
    list     p=18F2550

So that's it? Just fix the software and it'll program 3.3V PICs? With no extra diodes or circuitry? Excellent!

Bill can you confirm this? Or will we still need to do that extra schematic in the manual of the junebug to program 3.3v pics?

I posted the diode schematic on the Microchip forums, I was told the diodes are unnessary on the 5V tolerent inputs on many 3.3V PICs. I'll consult the datasheets to see which 3.3V PICs have PGD & PGC 5V ratings.

The reason you can't calibrate the Junebug is it doesn't have a programmable VDD generator, but once it's calibrated It'll sense your targets VDD.

I'll put this into JPUG issue 2, I'd like to figure out the formula for calibration

(The PICkit2 puts out 4.2V on VDD and you're asked to measure it)
My USB is 5.03V and the result was 0xFA81 for a calibrated PICkit2.

Well here's the deal, most 3.3V PICs have 5V tolerent inputs on digital only I/O pins... (always check the datasheet)
The 18F67J60 PGC & PGD are on digital pins so no clamp diodes are needed, the 24F the PGC & PGD are on analog inputs so you do need the diodes. 1N5817 work fine.

isn't it that hard to add a DS4303 chip

joseph@e-tech · 8th May 2008, 02:03 PM

i mean a DS4305
