PICSTARTPlus Low-cost Development Kit Supports All PICmicroMCUs PICSTART Plus makes designing with Microchip MCUs simple and affordable. The PICSTART Plus development suite from Microchip Technology provides the product development engineer with a highly-flexible, low-cost microcontroller (MCU) design tool set for all Microchip PICmicroMCU devices (DIP packages up to 40 pins with optional 68 and 84 PLCC capability). The PICSTART Plus development system runs on any PC- compatible machine operating under the Microsoft Windowsoperating system. PICSTART Plus is easy-to- use and features Microchips highly acclaimed MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE), with its built- in editor, assembler and Windows-based MPLAB SIM simulator. The PICSTART Plus development system includes full documentation, software, development programmer, and a device sample. The CE compliant PICSTART Plus development programmer features a molded plastic enclosure and Features: special circuit design techniques to enhance ESD Operates with PC-compatible host system running protection. PICSTART Plus is a development programmer Windows under MPLAB IDE environment and is not recommended for use in a production Reads, programs, verifies EPROM and EEPROM environment. program and data memory Sample software programs are provided to help the Reads, programs, verifies all configuration bits developer quickly become familiar with the PICSTART Plus development system and with Microchips PICmicro Programs and verifies an address range MCU families. The PICSTART Plus system also includes Microchips new CD-ROM containing complete Displays, edits, and transfers device contents to documentation necessary to get started with your and from programmer unit design. Additionally,PICCLite C compiler works with MPLAB Project support to automatically download the enclosed sample part and is a great introduction object file to PICSTART Plus into the C language and microcontroller program. MPASM Assembler translates assembler source code to object code for all PICmicro devices MPLAB SIM Windows-based simulator designed to model operation of all PICmicro MCUs Complete with RS-232 cable and 9V power supply PICmicro MCU device sample Complete documentation, Users Guides and CD-ROM PICC Lite C compiler for PIC16F84 microcontroller Mic roc hip Techno lo g y In cor p or at e dOrdering Information: System Description: The PICSTART Plus development system includes the PICSTART Plus development Model Name: programmer and the MPLAB IDE. PICSTART Plus Ordering Part Number: The PICSTART Plus programmer gives the product developer the ability to program DV003001 user software into any of the supported MCUs. The PICSTART Plus software Devices Supported: running under MPLAB provides for full interactive control over the programmer. All PICmicro MCUs (DIP Packages up to 40 pins) The MPASM macro assembler provides programmable memory data files, listing Options: files, and special files required for symbolic debug. The MPLAB SIM software AC164024 68-pin PLCC Adaptor Kit simulator allows the user to isolate code problems and debug firmware designs AC164027 84-pin PLCC Adaptor Kit on PICmicro devices. It simulates the core functions as well as most of the AC164031 28-pin MLF Adaptor Kit peripherals of the PICmicro MCU families. It is particularly suitable for optimizing algorithms where real-time emulation is not required.
