I was using various programmers for PIC programming.JDM was one of that,which I used for a long time but it's a Serial port programmer.I have used ART2003 programmer for programming 18F using Parallel port.Both of this works kinda well but not very much good.So,I decided to build a USB programmer based on Microchip's PICKIT2.It is very reliable and speedy comparing to other Serial or Parallel port programmers and also have good support as it is based on official PICKIT2 programmer.You can you this with any PC as newer PCs don't have Serial or Parallel ports.This even can be used as a UART tool and Logic analyzer too.It just cost me SLRs 800 to build this.
The Schematic can be found at;
MicroKid's Web site Use PICkIT2_SCH.pdf on the RAR file
Use 1N5817/1N5818/1N5819 for two diodes on the schematic.
The 680uH inductor can be changed with any inductor,I used 330uH for that.
All other parts are readily available on the market.
You an download the HEX and Programming software from
Microchip SiteAfter installing this,the HEX file will be located at
C:\Program Files\Microchip\PICkit 2 v2\PK2V023200.hex
You can program this HEX to PIC18F2550 using
ART2003 programmer in my previous post.
(enable LVP config bit when programming with WinPIC800)
This is my PICKIT2 lite programmer :)

ReplyDelete@Chaminda
ReplyDeleteI didn't test the cad file on that,just used the PDF(Schematic).
You can program almost all PIC uC with this expect 3.3V ones.
Ferrite bead is to smooth usb signals,if your usb cable is short,you can omit that,You can also remove the switch ..etc coz it's used by old firmware for firmware upgrade,now you don't need it
PLZ give me tested pic list buddika
ReplyDeletebuddika i wanna help u..now i maked this project cad file using schematic...i can share with u,,,my projects...

ReplyDeleteI made pickit2 lite.your information was really helpfull for me.I used 330uh inductor which removed from old phone charger.
ReplyDeletethank you for tth very useful post , allah bless you
ReplyDeletereally nice work. thank you very much. and your whole blog is very useful.
ReplyDeletedo i have to use a ferrite bead because its not available in my country
ReplyDeleteUse a shot cable for USB.then you don't need ferrite bead,I'm also not using it :)
Delete*short
Deletei just finished and tested this PICkit and its working perfectly. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge :) i didn't use a ferrite bed. i have a short USB cable. and for transistors i used BC547 and BC557. Im a noob for electronics and this is very first time i did something with microcontrollers. thank you again.
ReplyDeleteමේක වින්ඩෝස් 8 වල වැඩ කරනවද
ReplyDelete…
It should work
DeleteYou can buy Sri Lankan made Enhanced PICKIT2 (3.3v support + built-in ZIF socket in addition to ICSP socket) from LankaTronics.
ReplyDeleteA low cost version also available at http://www.lankatronics.com/aptinex-dev-tools/aptinex-pickit2-mini-usb-programmer-debugger.html
