I'm adding some new 18F stuff to my list of things I'm doing and want to get MPLAB 6.6 installed. I currently use CCS C 3.18 which says that it is good to go on MPLAB 6.2 and up. It is unclear to me whether my MPLAB 6.6 update will overwrite or coexist with my MPLAB 5.75 installation and what I'll have to do to get CCS working with the whole lot. Has anyone got any experience with this...

Hi I want to use a dsPIC33EP512GM304 but MPLAB tells me... pic30-coff-cc1.exe: error: Invalid -mcpu option. CPU 33EP512GM304 not recognized. MPLAB allows me to select the device type, but there doesn't seem to be a .h file for it. I really don't want to change to MPLABX as I already have a licence, plus what I have ain't broke and don't need fixing. Anything I can do? Chee...

I'd like to program my PIC16F84 with microchip MPLAB ICD 2 (I use this software : microchip MPLAB IDE version 6.30.0.0). It seems that the MPLAB ICD 2 doesn't support this PIC, and I can't program it. What's wrong? Are there other possibilities to progam this type of PIC with the same programmer? Thank-you very much for reply. Roby.

A few years ago, I successfully created a project in MPLAB v5 to program a 16F77 for an application, which has been working since. I've recently installed MPLAB v7 and would like to edit the project. I've used the project wizard to add the two required files: the .asm source file and .inc header file. The problem is that when I try to debug the program by stepping through etc. it skip...

I have downloaded MPLAB IDE v8.30 and installed it. I wanted to communicate PIC18F452 and PC I am using a sensor for my project which gives analog data.I am digitizing using 10 Bit ADC in the PIC. I want save the data from the ADC to a file in the computer. Now how should I proceed in the programming the PIC. Can you help me in this regard? I am trying to use ICD 2 module in the MPLAB softwa...

Hi all, I am working on a data acquistion part from a sensor to PC. I am using a PIC 16f877 and I have MPLAB IDE v5.61 and the ICD flash module. I wanted to know if there is anyway I could use the latest version which is MPLAB 6.6 with the ICD flash module. or would i need the ICD2(hockey puck thing) if i need to use the v6.6. Please let me know your experiences. thanks, Bhanu

Hi all, I just started writing small applications in MPLAB IDE for PIC16F micro controllers. I tried to save the .C file (one of source files) into source files section of the project I created. Surprisingly, its getting saved in other files section. I tried with different versions of simulator which gave same result. Any suggestions from experts of MPLAB IDE??? Thanks and regards Aamer ...

When I view the special function registers using mplab, every register appears to be set to zero. I just can't believe this since when I program two different applications, the PIC (16F87) behaves as if the SFR's have different values, yet when I use mplab to view the SFR's everything is still zero. What have I overlooked? All I want to do is connect the lead from my ICD2 to the PIC ...

Hi All, I am developing using CCSC C and MPLab 6.3. I program my devices with the PIC Start Plus and all seems to work fine, albeit a little slowly with some of the larger PICs. If I can improve my development cycle time with a different programmer/solution then I would definately look at one. Will to ICD2 work with with both MPLab 6.3 and CCSC C in the same way that the PIC Start...

Hi all, I have a problem finding any information on how to set HI-TECH PICC8.02 compiler and MPLab 6.4 (under WinXP). Especially I need directions how to set project under MPLAB using a Project\Build Options. When I try to compile project which has only one file xxx.c I don't have any problem. But when my project includes more source files (xxxx.c, yyyy.c ) and yyy.h I get an error: Er...

Hello, I currently have an ICD2 from Microchip. I use it to develop PIC16 code using the MPLAB debugger and assembler. I need to move to the PIC18 parts and C language, but I am struggling figure out the development tools to get. Do you have any experience with the CCS compiler running with MPLAB and ICD2? ($175 solution) Thanks, Talal

Hi all I got a programmer named WPR3. It offers to program PIC16 and PIC12, as well as some cards and EEPROMs. I only need the PIC part. It is an older type, which is directly controlled by the parallel port, a type which should have been common at the time. Though I have not found much on the net. My basic problem is that my MPLAB will not use/accept it, and I dont know where to get...
