FD-ART2003
Developed
specifically
for
programming
of PIC
18F2550
micro
controllers,
this
parallel
port,
no-power,
programmer
is the
smallest
of all
programmers
ever
built.
A DB25
Male Connector,
one
capacitor
and a
resistor
makes this
Port
Powered
programmer.
Programmer
takes its
power from
Parallel
Port pins
2-9. VPP
for this
programmer
is 5V and
hence
"LVP"
must be
selected
in
programming
software.
(See
art2003

Document
given
below)
I built
this
programmer
to write
firmware
(boot
loader) into my
PIC18F2550
which I wanted for
my PICKIT2
inspired
USB
programmer.
A free
windows
based
program
called
WINPIC800
V.3.59 is
available
for free
download.
This
software
is not
intended
for this
programmer
alone, you
may use it
for many
other
programmers
including
few detailed
here on
this
website.
Although,
programmer
socket is
wired for
PIC18F250
&
2550,
other PICs
with
similar
pin
connections
may be
programmed.
You may
also wire
your own
socket for
different
type of
PIC if the
same is
supported in
the WINPIC800
(under
Art2003
selection).
And
there is
always a
possibility
to use Programming
Adaptor
board
wired to
this
programmer
to get
larger
acceptance
of various
PICs.
This
programmer
is
designed
on a 6cm X
4cm
Doubled
Sided PTH
Board.
