Well the PICKIT2 showed up along with the 44-pin demo board. All is well with it and I have run through all the demo programs.
Now, I need to get down to business with it. There must be, somewhere in the world, a cable that would plug into this little guy and connect to my breadboard where a PIC18F252 is under test (currently without the benefit of a debugger).
Do I need to make my own cable or are there some ready made?
I use a six pin header to plug into a bread board.
I didn't have a 6 pin header, but I did have 2 3-pin headers that worked just fine ;)
Having a little trouble getting it into debug mode, but working through the troubleshooting section of the user's guide.
I'm ordering mine this week :)
Did everyone see the YouTube review on the Pickit3 :
