Hi
I am a new CCS's user. But I do not have an ICD debuger. May I make a CCS ICD circuit especialy usb model or serial model. Can you help me please.? I think I need some scheme, pcb and Pic's code for ICD. Best regards.. |

I have two ICD-U40. Very small and nice. But it isnīt a panacea. You should first use a bootlader (Tiny Bootloader is one of the best). Itīs a lot faster and easier to use (of course you canīt do debugging).
Then buy an ICD and youīll see -if you are pretty good programmer- what have just told you about it.
Itīs better, cheaper, and faster to learn programming in C, and use a bootloader.

Well he didn't say he wanted to make a programmer and a bootloader would be more like a programmer than and ICD Debugger so I would disagree with you. And an ICD2 is faster than any debugger in downloading code and no way a bootloader is better than an ICD. |

Mark,
If you are a good programmer, you donīt need an ICD.
Apart, I think it is not very well designed: It uses RB6, RB7 and (maybe) RB3 -> You loose half of the RB4:7 ints on change !!
There should be another way........
I donīt agree with you at all. |
