Hi all, I've just started out on micro controllers and would like to seek some advice o the hardware part.
If I were to create my own circuit, what are the components needed to write the program? My current knowledge tells me that I need to connect my own circuit with the PIC on it to the MPLAB ICD 2 Debugger and then to the computer which I will write a program using the MPLAB IDE. Is that right?
Host computer ----- MPLAB ICD 2 ----- Target board
Are there any 3rd party hardware which I can use to replace the MPLAB ICD2 to save cost?
Thanks!
