A $29 ICD for PICs

Microchip PIC In-Circuit Debugger MPLAB-ICD1B from http://microcontrollershop.com/product_info.php?cPath=112_152&products_id=1856

Fully assembled and tested Microchip PIC In-Circuit Debugger and Programmer

This low-cost development tool providing real time emulation of the PIC16F87x microcontrollers with built-in ICD feature. The board is fully compatible with Microchip’s free MPLAB integrated development environment and is a complete lower-cost replacement of Microchip’s MPLAB-ICD1 In-Circuit Debugger. Note: Only MPLAB versions 5.40 and earlier support the ICD1.

As future device offerings become available, you simply download new software into the PIC-ICD1 at no cost and without the need of hardware upgrades.

Using Microchip’s proprietary In-Circuit Debug functions, programs can be downloaded, executed in real time and examined in detail using the debug features of MPLAB. Watch variables and breakpoints can be set from symbolic labels in C or assembly source code, and single stepping can be done through C source line, assembly code level, or from a mixed C source and generated assembly-level listing. PIC-ICD1 can also be used as a development programmer for PIC MCUs supported by MPLAB’s programming function.

PIC In-Circuit Debugger Features

  • Real-time background debugging
  • MPLAB IDE compatible (v5.40 and earlier)
  • Firmware upgradable from PC
  • Supports low-voltage MCUs (2.0 to 6.0 range)
  • Diagnostic LEDs (Power, Busy, Error)
  • Reading/Writing memory space & stack of target microcontroller
  • Erase of program memory space with verification
  • Freeze on Halt

This product does not ship with any documentation or software. It functions the same as Microchip’s MPLAB-ICD1, but uses a different PIC ICSP connector (top view). For a complete list of supported PIC microcontroller devices, see the release notes for your version of MPLAB. The newest versions of MPLAB do not support the ICD1. The latest version with ICD1 support is Version 5.40. You can also download the schematic diagram of this product for more information.
