PIC16(L)F707
22.0 IN-CIRCUIT SERIAL
PROGRAMMING™ (ICSP™)
ICSP™ programming allows customers to manufacture
circuit boards with unprogrammed devices. Programming
can be done after the assembly process allowing the
device to be programmed with the most recent firmware
or a custom firmware. Five pins are needed for ICSP™
programming:
• ICSPCLK
• ICSPDAT
•MCLR
/VPP
•VDD
•VSS
The device is placed into Program/Verify mode by
holding the ICSPCLK and ICSPDAT pins low then
raising the voltage on MCLR/VPP from 0v to VPP. In
Program/Verify mode the program memory, user IDs and
the Configuration Words are programmed through serial
communications. The ICSPDAT pin is a bidirectional I/O
used for transferring the serial data and the ISCPCLK pin
is the clock input. For more information on ICSP™ refer
to the “PIC16F707/PIC16LF707 Programming
Specification” (DS41405A).
FIGURE 22-1: TYPICAL CONNECTION FOR ICSP™ PROGRAMMING
Note: The ICD 2 produces a VPP voltage greater
than the maximum V
PP specification of the
PIC16(L)F707. When using this program-
mer, an external circuit, such as the
AC164112 MPLAB
®
ICD 2 VPP voltage
limiter, is required to keep the V
PP voltage
within the device specifications.
