FIGURE 1-2: CONNECTING THE PICkit™ PROGRAMMER/DEBUGGER TO
AN ICSP™ CONNECTOR
The PICkit™ 2 Programmer/Debugger is then connected to an available USB port on
the PC using the included USB cable.
1.7 SOLDERLESS PROTOTYPING AREA STRIP CONFIGURATION
The solderless prototyping area contains a variety of strips under the perforated plastic
block. These strips “short” vertical rows of holes together as shown in Figure 1-3.
