Software and Hardware Solutions for the 32-bit Designer
Summary
The PICkit 3 In-Circuit Debugger
allows debugging and programming
of Flash PIC MCUs and dsPIC DSCs
at an affordable price point using
the powerful MPLAB X IDE graphical
user interface. The PICkit 3 ICD is
connected to the design engineer’s
PC using a full speed USB interface
and can be connected to the target
via a Microchip debug (RJ-11)
connector (compatible with MPLAB
ICD and MPLAB REAL ICE In-Circuit
Emulator). The connector uses two
device I/O pins and a reset line to implement in-circuit
debugging and In-Circuit Serial Programming™.

Summary
The MPLAB PM3 Universal
Device Programmer is easy
to use and operates with a
PC or as a stand alone unit.
This development tool
programs Microchip’s entire
line of PIC MCUs as well as
the latest dsPIC DSC
devices. When used
standalone, data can be
loaded and saved with the SD/MMC card.
