Supported PIC and EEPROM devices

The following list describes the devices that are currently supported by the ProgramPIC or ProgramEEPROM sketch. The sketch must be used with a circuit that is appropriate for the device in question. The 14-bit PIC programmer circuit supports some of these devices via the ZIF socket and others via the ICSP cable.

The author has personally tested only some of these devices. The others on this list are based on information published by Microchip Technology Inc and contained within the source code for picprog. Patches are welcome to improve the device support.

The following terms are used in the device list:

Autodetected

The device can be automatically detected from its device identifier.

Manual

The device cannot be automatically detected. The host program must be supplied the –device command-line option to select this device.

ZIF, 18-pin

The device should be programmable using the ZIF socket on the 14-bit PIC programmer circuit, with the jumper shunt on JP3 in the 18-pin position (1-2). An ICSP cable can also be used.

ZIF, 8-pin

The device should be programmable using the ZIF socket on the 14-bit PIC programmer circuit, with the jumper shunt on JP3 in the 8-pin position (2-3). An ICSP cable can also be used.

ICSP

The device cannot be placed directly into the ZIF socket on the 14-bit PIC programmer circuit. Instead, an ICSP adapter cable will be necessary.
