Warp13 OR Picstart plus - AMIT KAPOOR - Aug 13 11:39:00 2004
|
Hello everyone ,
i need your guidance .
actually till now i was using pic16 series and i have programmer which support only
pic12/14/16 series.
but now i want to jump to pic18 series so i need to buy pic18 programmer.i searched
and found that there are two programmer : Picstart plus and warp13. warp
13 is cheaper and it is MPLAB compatible. Many of you must have used either PICstart
plus or warp13 and must have reasons for there selection among the two.So i wanted to knw
the pros and cons of these two before buying.i know warp13 is cheap but that is not the
only criteria , if warp13 has some serious problems plzz let me know, and if there is some
other programmer better than these two please tell me that too.
Help Me!
Thanx a LOT
Amit

Mine has been in use for almost a year with no real problems. It won't program some of the newer chips within MPLAB because MPLAB thinks it is a Picstart Plus that has a version of FW that is too old to program those newer chips. I can however program the chips just fine outside the IDE with the Warp13 software and the Warp13 software actually programs the chips *much* faster than the MPLAB IDE (it's like 1/3 the time). They do have a driver that you can install which is supposed to make the programming within MPLAB faster too. Perhaps if I installed this driver I would be able to program chips such as the 18F1320 and 18F2320 within MPLAB but I haven't gotten around to trying it. Also it looks like Newfound now has beta FW available for the Warp13 which should bring it up to a PicStart FW level such that MPLAB will be able to program the chips directly. |

Actually, there is a third programmer you should consider - The Olimex PIC-MCP-USB. Sparkfun.com sells them. I have had one for a couple of months now, and it works great. It is powered by the USB port, so no external power supply is needed - sweet! BTW, check out some of Olimex's development boards. They have PIC boards with onboard RS-232 (or USB) and a built-in ICSP connector. I know I sound like an Olimex sales guy, but I'm not. I've just been in PIC heaven since I got their programmer and development boards.
