pic configuration information

Ricardoco said:

hi all,
ive got this programmer that supports chips to 28pin 300mil and ive made an extension board to support chips to 40pin 600mil the problem is my programmer has a configuration window and the help file says the information can be found in the data sheets to update the supported chip types the problem is i think the information is in a format that is not the same as the information in the data sheet, could someone take a look at this screen shot and tell me what they think is going on??

i got my free samples from microchip and these include:
16F877A
16F876A
16F874A
16F747
16F872

the 876A is the one i was refering to.

There might be problems with adding the new FLASH chips (like the 876A), they use a different programming algorithym to the EEPROM chips.
