INTRODUCING THE PICkit™ 2 MICROCONTROLLER PROGRAMMER

The PICkit™ 2 Microcontroller Programmer is a low-cost development programmer. It 
is capable of programming most of Microchip’s Flash microcontrollers. For specific 
products supported, see the 

README

 file included on the PICkit™ 2 Starter Kit CD 

ROM.

The PICkit™ 2 Microcontroller Programmer Operating System (firmware) can be easily 
upgraded from the programming software. New device support can be added by 
updating the operating system. The latest firmware is available on Microchip’s web site 
at www.microchip.com.

Note:

The PICkit™ 2 Microcontroller Programmer is intended for development 
programming. For production programming, please consider the MPLAB 
PM3 Programmer or other third party programmers designed for the 
production environment.
