USB programmer for PIC

[amindzo]

Hi, i want a USB programmer for PIC microcontrollers (esp 16F series) that works with ICprog. could you give me the circuit?

The Junebug can program and debug many 16F parts. It's USB and the schematic is in the assembly manual on my site.

It's too complicated, i just want a simple one.

There is no simple USB anything. The Junebug is about as simple as it gets.

There's no such thing, USB programers use processors, ICProg doesn't.

this is a simple usb programmer but all usb programmer should have a usb simulator the 18f2550 do this things

like bill said the junebug is as simple and useful as it gets!i too debated a lot about it search pic programmer on this forum and you will know what i am talking about!

The simplest and dirtiest 'USB programmer' for PIC I've made was the 'ol JDM with a cheap USB-serial cable and a mini voltage booster for the 13v for MCLR.

Not exactly 'true' USB as its basically serial, but using USB communication and power. That was before the PICkit2 or junebug came out (2002?). It was also woefully unreliable since the USB-serial bridge hated bit banging data lines. Worked though!

Save yourself some time and buy a PICkit2 copy like the junebug, or those wonderful chinese knock-offs from ebay. It'll probably even b e cheaper than the parts and you won't have to spend days building and debugging the sodding thing.
