Hi, You can use Pickit2 usb programmer. I used in ubuntu without any problem. Piklab can use with 1.x firmware version. If you want to use Pickit2 with latest firmware than you need to use microchip linux program. 73, Rudolf ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
Re: [time-nuts] PIC Programmer for Piklab in Linux?
Hi Rudolf, The Pickit2 configuration choices were a bit confusing, so I decided to order a different serial board that contains actual 16550s. Now that I've had a chance to assimilate what I've learned, the problem is traced to the 3 Volt 3243 chips that are in today's serial boards. After doing more searching, I found a post by Roberto, EB4EQA on QSL.net where he made an booster to get around the problem. If the new serial board doesn't work out, Roberto's booster looks simple enough to hack together and I can continue to put off switching from my trusty old JDM. I may make 2 of them so I can get LIRC pulled off of the motherboard port, as well. http://www.qsl.net/eb4eqa/serial_booster/serial_booster.htm Bob From: Rudolf Bodocsi rud...@bodocsi.net To: time-nuts@febo.com Sent: Sunday, May 18, 2014 1:27 AM Subject: Re: [time-nuts] PIC Programmer for Piklab in Linux?

[time-nuts] PIC Programmer for Piklab in Linux?
Can anyone suggest a PIC programmer that will work with Piklab on Linux? The replacement serial board I just bought won't drive my JDM Classic PIC programmer. It doesn't reliably drive my LIRC IR transmitter either, so I have to devote the serial port on my motherboard to LIRC. My GPSDO development is stalled until I can get something that works.

Re: [time-nuts] PIC Programmer for Piklab in Linux?
I neglected to mention that I'm pretty much limited to USB or ethernet (if such a programmer exists) at this point.

Re: [time-nuts] PIC Programmer for Piklab in Linux?
I =switched over to USB based development boards a few years back. Must have a mini USB on them and you never even need to think about programming you simply click upload in the text editor. You can get them with ARV, Adruino, ARM and other CPUs. Prices in some cases under $5. I've not had to build a PCB either as these come ready to use. Maybe time to switch. These modern boards have about a 10 minute learning curve. From cutting open the box to first running program. The gadget below has a usb jack, is self programming, connects direct (with only a USB cable) to any Linux/Mac or windows computer. It has about a half dozen analog pins (dac/adc) and a dozen digital pins. eBay's for under $10. If you install 0.1 male header s it drops into a solderless bread board, (there are many things like this.) Stand alone programmers are going to be harder and harder to find as time goes on.
