Well I did get it working again.
Slapped in a PIC and added thew VPP/MCLR pull up resistor.
Using the CLK/DAT for outputs was not an issue after all.

I think I was doing it wrong since the...

I've been using the KIT 149 since about the beginning of my PIC tinkering.
Within the MICROBURN software I have simply always turned off MCLRE so i can have it as an input.
Of course that may be...

There is one brain fart I have now realized.
I never did add a pull up on MCLR
Yet the programmer worked a while. Must have been luck maybe.
So Before I buy a new one i will add the MCLR pullup...

The PICKIT 3 was nice when it worked as it worked with the MPLAB and Microcode Studio when I added the command lines I found on the forums.
So I have been using 16F690's most exclusively. Data,...

Hey all. I've been using a Kit149 programmer for years running Microburn software. One of them died and I'm still on my second one but it's getting worn and sometimes acts up.
Anyway I have ordered...

I've also wanted to use the modern widely available dime-o-dozen LCD's with I2C adapter boards. These things are like $6 all day long on Amazon etc.
I've been searching this forum (and others) for a...

Thanks. I am not sure if I came across that in the many searches yet.
It doesn't seem to mention I2C much so maybe I haven't seen it.

I use the PIC for various hobby and projects.
It's one aspect of my projects that is something I use from time to time but not on a continual basis.

For some idea, the recent projects I'm working...

Hi all, I've lurked about the forum for years when I needed help with some code for my occasional PIC based hobby stuff.

So when I first got into microprocessors I initially used a PARALLAX kit I...
