Schematic will vary depending on family and individual PICs.

AllVol is correct.

All you need is to identify the ICSP pins (VPP,VDD,VSS,PDATA,PCLK) & make your own target boards like most of us do.

I need the help to program PIC16F877A & 18F4550. All suggestions on how to wire them with pin numbers and any other requirements are welcome

My Inchworm quick project poster on my site shows an 16F877A with the ICD pinouts, the 18F4550 is the same electrically.

Go to the Microchip web site and look up the data sheets for the two chips. Under pin description you will find the pins that need to be connected to the PICkit2. Lots of other information there, by the way.

Dear friend just one last query is it possible to connect those pins directly to the PICKIT2 and program without any additional circuit or power supply

Yes it is. The PICkit can also power the target through the ICSP. (I think 100mA is the limit)

Thanks for immediate reply

Hi Unhappyrolleyes

If you are asking for a programming target board then i have got one for the 18F series(does some 16F ones too) and provides the ability to use the other features of the PICKIT2/Junebug like UART tool and Logic analyzer.Check my blog.

I have uploaded the .brd file.Download a copy of Eagle(CadSoft Online: EAGLE Layout Editor) and open it.Make a PCB.

Here's one that should work with 12F, 16F, and 18F DIP parts. I designed it to use a ZIF socket or three 20-pin single-in-line machined pin sockets.

Now if you take those two diagrams and flip the 08-20 connector 180 degrees and use a separate cable for the 08-20 devices and the 28-40 devices you could use a single 40-pin ZIF for all (just like melabs ZIF-40 adapter). Please note that while the silkscreen shows 08-18 it's actually good for 08-20.

Regards, Mike

Nice one Mike.May be i could have some switches and remove the extra ziff sockets that i am using and also add 12F,16f capability.

For $10.00 you could go this route.
