devices to program 8pin 14pin & 20pin devices based on a pickit2 clone and the 20pin demo board from microchip.

1. To have a LCD 4bit mode for 14pin & 20pin devices (on the 14pin & 20pin 16F690 to use port C)
2. plugin boards for relays or led display (using port B)
3. on board Usb programmer pickit2 or clone

Or have you seen a cheap good ready built one anywhere.?

Better to have a built-in programmer as well on the same board, in order to avoid buying a programmer.

To start this project off,
this is a pickit2 clone, parts used in proteus selected to show circiut, but parts used for original where through hole type.

some notes on use.
you need to use the *.hex file from microchip.
J2 fitted if usb powers programmer
J5 fitted if 12v power is used, this is the better option as it can power the board.

http://www.blueroomelectronics.com/ some thing to think about.

Better you can have ICD2 clone or PICkit 2 clone available on net,both free and commercial version are available,get or build one board as per your requirement.

so you build a clone and want to program the chip with the *.hex code, then try this.

You could try:

and you may want to modify it Smiley

EDIT: done we don't code links

Sounds like an interesting project that I would like to be involved in.
I would say to use the PicKit3 programmer as the base for the PIC dev board since it is the newest available.
I will gladly do the schematic and PCB layout.

 I also would like to paticipate to the project and to help .
About using PICKT3 - I read a lot of complaints about it.

".... didn't seem to take advantage of the new MCU and many of the features available for the PICkit 2 were not present on the PICkit 3....."

It is on purpose.. Microchip knows what it is doing, so that's fine for them, PICKit3 should fail for now, later on you will see what happens if what on my mind is true, let's just wait and see.
