The connector uses two device I/O pins and the reset line to implement in-circuit debugging and In-Circuit Serial Programming. It can run as a debugger in assembler or with C code from all PIC compilers including Hi-tech and Microchip XC compilers.īuilt-in over-voltage/short circuit monitor The PICKit 3 is supported by all MPLAB versions, including the latest MPLAB X.MPLAB X IDE compatible – runs on Windows or Linux.Full-speed USB support using Windows or Linux standard drivers. Supports low voltage to 2.0 volts (2.0v to 6.Supports low voltage to 2.0 volts (2.0v to 6.Firmware upgradeable from PC/web download.The programmer function can be run from within MPLAB for easy development or from its own programming interface to simplify programming operations.

Please note that this is the PICkit 3 programmer only (Microchip part number PG164130), and does not include any demo boards! Included in this package are the PICKit 3 Programmer/Debugger, PICkit 3 Programming Software(via download), the MPLAB IDE Software(via download) and a A to mini-B USB cable. Additionally it is firmware upgradeable, and Microchip regularly releases new firmware to support new PIC chips. It can program a large range of PIC chips, including the PIC10F, 12F, 16F, PIC18F, 24F/H, dsPIC and PIC32 (future) families.

The PICkit 3 allows debugging and programming of PIC(R) and dsPIC(R) Flash microcontrollers using the powerful graphical user interface of the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE), and it does this all at a most affordable price point.
