@.WINDOWS APPLICATIONS for Microcontroller Programmers

PIC programmer v1.2 MS Windows application currently supports Microchip PIC18FxxJxx microcontroller family and HEX file data format and works only with simple USB microcontroller programmer. It works on all Microsoft Windows versions with .NET 2.0 framework or later installed. You can obtain .NET framework 4.0 for your windows version on the Microsoft developer’s website (http://developer.microsoft.com).

PIC Programmer v2.x MS Windows applications currently support Microchip PIC18FxxJxx microcontroller family and HEX file data format and work only with fast and superspeed USB microcontroller programmers. They work on all Microsoft Windows versions with .NET 2.0 framework or later installed. You can obtain .NET framework 4.0 for your windows version on the Microsoft developer’s website (http://developer.microsoft.com).

PIC Programmer v2.3 x64 is a 64-bit MS Windows application that currently supports Microchip PIC18FxxJxx microcontroller family and HEX file data format and works only with superspeed USB microcontroller programmers. A 64-bit Microsoft Windows version with .NET 4.0 framework or later is required. You can obtain .NET framework 4.0 for your windows version on the Microsoft developer’s website (http://developer.microsoft.com).

PIC Programmer v2.4 x64 is a 64-bit MS Windows application that currently supports Microchip PIC18FxxJxx microcontroller family and HEX file data format and works only with superspeed USB microcontroller programmers. A 64-bit Microsoft Windows version with .NET 4.0 framework or later is required. You can obtain .NET framework 4.0 for your windows version on the Microsoft developer’s website (http://developer.microsoft.com). Automatic detection of super speed programmer and faster programming with Velleman K8055 and K8055N boards and chip reset function were added. There is no initial delay before super speed operations start. There is also a 32-bit version: PIC Programmer v2.4 for 32-bit Windows versions.

PIC Programmer v2.5 x64 is a 64-bit MS Windows application with source code based on SVLIB_PIC18F24J50 v2.1.NET4.DLL and PIC18F2xJ50 firmware 2.0 or later!

PIC Programmer v2.6 (x64) are 32-bit and 64-bit MS Windows applications with source code based on SVLIB_PIC18F24J50 v2.6.st.NET4.DLL and PIC18F2xJ50 firmware 2.2 or later! The application features enhanced USB connection detection.

PIC Programmer v3.0 (x64) are 32-bit and 64-bit MS Windows applications with source code based on SVLIB_PIC18F24J50 v3.4.NET4.DLL and PIC18F26J50 firmware 2.4 or later! The application is the first to enable PIC32 programming. 28-pin PIC32MX250F128B was used during initial testing. Read more about building a JTAG PIC32 programmer here.

High programming voltage adapter extends yor programming options to the whole PIC18 microcontroller family. However, you need a new version of 64-bit MS Windows application: PIC programmer v2.05d x64. A 64-bit Microsoft Windows version with .NET 4.0 framework or later is required.

WARNING! THE APLICATIONS ARE PROVIDED AS THEY ARE! YOU USE THEM AT YOUR OWN RISK!

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR PIC programmer v1.2

1. Install Microchip DLL or driver for MCP2200 from Microchip website: http://www.microchip.com/ --> "MCP2200" into "Search Microchip" field (upper search field) or click on the following link:

http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/MCP2200%20DLL.zip for DLL

or

http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/MCP2200%20Windows%20Driver.zip for Windows driver

2. Install MCP2200 driver if you have an older Windows version and make sure to copy SimpleIO-M.dll to the same directory as SV PIC Programmer application

(Pic Programmer v1.1.exe) from DOWNLOADS.

The install directory is not important! Create directory wherever you like and optionally make link to the desktop.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR PIC programmer v2.x

Go to Downloads section and download file Pic Programmer v2.x.zip. The ZIP package contains 3 files: EXE, DLL and HEX. Program HEX file to PIC18F24J50 or PIC18F26J50 (ex. with simple USB microcontroller programmer) and then put EXE and DLL files in the same folder. Remember that the program will only work, if at least .NET framework iz installed. You don't need to download any files from Microchip! However for advanced users it might be usefull to download PIC18F24J50 or PIC18F26J50 user guide.
