Programming with mikroBootloader step 1 – Connecting mikromedia You can program the microcontroller with bootloader which is pre-programmed into the device by default. To transfer .hex file from a PC to MCU you need bootloader software (mikroBootloader USB HID) which can be downloaded from: http://www.mikroe.com/eng/downloads/get/1858/ mikrobootloader_pic24ep_usbhid_v200.zip 01 After software is downloaded unzip it to desired location and start mikroBootloader USB HID software.
step 2 – Browsing for .HEX file step 3 – Selecting .HEX file 01 01 02 Figure 3-3: Browse for HEX Figure 3-4: Selecting HEX 01 Click the ”Browse for HEX” button and from a pop-up window (Figure 3.4) choose the .HEX file which will be uploaded to MCU memory. 01 Select .HEX file using open dialog window. 02 Click the ”Open” button.
step 4 – Uploading .HEX file 01 01 Figure 3-5: Begin uploading Figure 3-6: Progress bar 01 To start .HEX file bootloading click the ”Begin uploading” button. 01 You can monitor .
step 5 – Finish upload 01 Figure 3-7: Restarting MCU Figure 3-8: mikroBootloader ready for next job 01 Click the ”OK” button after uploading is finished and wait for 5 seconds. Board will automatically reset and your new program will execute.
Programming with mikroProg™ programmer The microcontroller can be programmed with mikroProg™ programmer and mikroProg Suite™ for PIC® software. The mikroProg™ programmer is connected to the development system via the CN6 connector, Figure 3-9. mikroProg™ is a fast USB 2.0 programmer with mikroICD™ hardware In-Circuit Debugger. Smart engineering allows mikroProg™ to support PIC10®, PIC12®, PIC16®, PIC18®, dsPIC30/33®, PIC24® and PIC32® devices in a single programmer.
mikroProg Suite™ for PIC® Software mikroProg™ programmer requires special programming software called mikroProg Suite™ for PIC®. This software is used for programming of ALL Microchip® microcontroller families, including PIC10®, PIC12®, PIC16®, PIC18®, dsPIC30/33®, PIC24® and PIC32®. Software has intuitive interface and SingleClick™ programming technology. Just by downloading the latest version of mikroProg Suite™ your programmer is ready to program new devices.
Programming with ICD2® or ICD3® programmer The microcontroller can be also programmed with ICD2® or ICD3® programmer. These programmers connects with mikromedia board via ICD2 CONNECTOR BOARD. Figure 3-12: Connecting ICD2® or ICD3® programmer Figure 3-11: Placing ICD2® connector In order to enable the ICD2® and ICD3® programmers to be connected to the mikromedia board, it is necessary to provide the appropriate connector such as the ICD2 CONNECTOR BOARD.
