PIC10F200/202/204/206
11.11 PICSTART Plus Development
Programmer
The PICSTART Plus Development Programmer is an
easy-to-use, low-cost, prototype programmer. It
connects to the PC via a COM (RS-232) port. MPLAB
Integrated Development Environment software makes
using the programmer simple and efficient. The
PICSTART Plus Development Programmer supports
most PIC devices in DIP packages up to 40 pins.
Larger pin count devices, such as the PIC16C92X and
PIC17C76X, may be supported with an adapter socket.
The PICSTART Plus Development Programmer is CE
compliant.
11.13 Demonstration, Development and
Evaluation Boards
A wide variety of demonstration, development and
evaluation boards for various PIC MCUs and dsPIC
DSCs allows quick application development on fully func-
tional systems. Most boards include prototyping areas for
adding custom circuitry and provide application firmware
and source code for examination and modification.
The boards support a variety of features, including LEDs,
temperature sensors, switches, speakers, RS-232
interfaces, LCD displays, potentiometers and additional
EEPROM memory.
The demonstration and development boards can be
used in teaching environments, for prototyping custom
circuits and for learning about various microcontroller
applications.
In addition to the PICDEM™ and dsPICDEM™ demon-
stration/development board series of circuits, Microchip
has a line of evaluation kits and demonstration software
for analog filter design, K

11.12 PICkit 2 Development Programmer
The PICkit™ 2 Development Programmer is a low-cost
programmer with an easy-to-use interface for pro-
gramming many of Microchip’s baseline, mid-range
and PIC18F families of Flash memory microcontrollers.
The PICkit 2 Starter Kit includes a prototyping develop-
ment board, twelve sequential lessons, software and
HI-TECH’s PICC™ Lite C compiler, and is designed to
help get up to speed quickly using PIC
®
micro-
controllers. The kit provides everything needed to
program, evaluate and develop applications using
Microchip’s powerful, mid-range Flash memory family
of microcontrollers.
