REQUIRED TOOLS

The PICkit™ 1 Flash Starter Kit User’s Guide explains how to set up the PC and the 
PICkit™ 1 Flash Starter Kit. Use firmware version 2.0.2 or later.
The PICkit™ 1 Flash Starter Kit CD-ROM (DS40049) contains many of the necessary 
files.
The 

capacitance.exe

 PC program comes with the Humidity Sensor PICtail™ Demo 

Board CD-ROM (Version v1.07.01 or later).
