Rotary decoders - Good news / Bad news

[rickalty 0]

The good news is that the decoder boards arrived today. The bad news is I didn't realise my PIC programmer doesn't handle the 14pin 16F676 PICs :-(I've emailed Leo to ask if I can make a socket adapter, or if I'll need to get hold of a new programmer, and will keep you all updated.Richard

Is your programmer based on JDM's design? Will it work with IC-Prog?If so, post the schematics and I'll tell you how to wire ICSP for the 676.-Leo

Here are the pics of the front and back.... And yes, I use IC-Prog with it.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/69400.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/69401.jpgRichard

Here goes...hope this puts you in a better mood. ;)http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/69404.jpgYou can solder the wires on the backside as shown and wire them to the 676 using a breadboard.-Leo

Where can I get schematics for this programmer? It looks very simple.!ThanksPaulo

There is some assorted info here: http://www.mikesflightdeck.com/micro_controllers.htm including the link to the JDM page.Mikewww.mikesflightdeck.com

JDM Programmer:http://www.jdm.homepage.dk/newpic.htmPIC-PG2C programmer (~$12 USD):http://www.olimex.com/dev/pic-pg2c.htmlhttp://www.sparkfun.com/shop/index.php?sho...rt=38108&cat=3&The PIC-PG2C is great and I highly recommend it since you can plug any PIC (any PIC I tried including the 676) into the socket to program them. No dealing with ICSP connections with this programmer.-Leo

Back to your old tricks Mike...answering mere seconds before me eh? ;)

Does this mean they are useless for the ones I want for my Integrated Flight System Modules in which I e-mailed you about?Regards,Darren Sugden

We have the technology ......http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/69483.jpgProgrammed and verified succesfully. I am, however, having a problem getting the boards to work. I'm working on it with Leo's help, and I will keep you all updated.Richard

[Guest darrens]

Thanks, Richard :-)Regards,Darren

Boards are now working right. I'll be mailing them to those who ordered from me over the next couple of days.Richard

[Guest darrens]

Great! Am I on the list for posting? - you said you would calculate the costs for me.Regards,Darren
