Description: I finally found a very nice universal window based software designed to work with any serial programmers for PIC16F84, i.e., WPicProg16 V1.20, written by Nigel Goodwin. Build this programmer before started experimenting the forthcoming many interesting F84 projects. Some PIC programmers can be used for in circuit programming, some provide many PIC chips including EEPROM, say. The F84-Programmer, however, is suitable for beginners. It’s so simple and cheap.
The PIC16F84 microcontroller is a popular choice among hobbyists and professionals for various applications due to its simplicity and versatility. The WPicProg16 V1.20 software serves as a universal interface for programming this microcontroller using serial communication. The software is designed to be user-friendly, facilitating easy interaction with the programmer.
To construct a basic PIC16F84 programmer, various components are required, including a serial interface, voltage regulators, and necessary resistors and capacitors. The programmer typically connects to the PC's serial port and interfaces with the microcontroller through its programming pins. The circuit usually includes a 5V power supply to power the PIC16F84 during programming.
The design of the F84-Programmer emphasizes simplicity, making it suitable for beginners. It often features a straightforward layout with clearly labeled connections and minimal external components. This simplicity allows users to focus on programming and experimenting with the PIC16F84 without being overwhelmed by complex circuitry.
In-circuit programming capability is an advantageous feature of some PIC programmers, allowing users to program the microcontroller while it is still mounted on the target board. This feature can save time and reduce the need for additional hardware. However, the F84-Programmer is primarily designed for standalone programming of the PIC16F84, making it an excellent starting point for those new to microcontroller programming.
Overall, the combination of the WPicProg16 software and the F84-Programmer provides an accessible entry point for individuals looking to explore microcontroller applications, enabling them to experiment with various projects involving the PIC16F84.I finally found a very nice universal window based software designed to work with any serial programmers for PIC16F84, i.e., WPicProg16 V1.20, written by Nigel Goodwin.
