i have the same pic, but different development board. i tried to use this software and it keeps giving me errors when i try to use it.. any thoughts on why it doesnt show up on the external device in the program? its plugged in and power is on, and i added it and installed it as hardware..
You have to choose which Programmer you are using on ICPROG's settings. It doesn't "detect" your programmer, and you don't need to install it as hardware on Windows neither. Is your programmer really connected via serial cable? I guess icprog is suited just for this type of interface. Discover your programmer's name, and choose it in Settings > Hardware > Programmer. There's some help in the ic-prog page also.
Well, I thought the title and description would tell enough. Being short, the circuitry works as a PIC recorder. First, you place any PIC (16F628A) there (on the circuit), connects it with your computer via a Serial cable (you see it in the video - it's blue, I made it myself), and then you run the software (ic-prog). In this case I just pressed the "Verify" button. It checks if your circuit is correct and you really placed a PIC there.There's another button to insert code and data in the memory
wait, maybe i misunderstood... it seem this is finally what I am looking for. so this schene doesn't use the pic mentioned in the scheme to guide the pulse but programms it?
Exactly. The PIC showed in this video (in the protoboard) is being programmed. He is just receiving information, it isn't controlling anything. The computer uses its Serial Port to send the program code right into the PIC memory.
According to the website linked on the description of this video, this circuit was developed for PIC16F628A and PIC16F84. Since both of them are 18-pin microcontrollers, and PIC12F683 is a 8-pin microcontroller, I don't think it will work for 12F683.
what is this project

You can't talk? A little explanation would help a lot.

Any doubt you have, you can ask here, by the way. That will certainly help other people.

Wich's the name of the software what you'r using
for PCB design ????

Sorry, I didn't make the PCB design. It was made by Leon Heller. I don't know how it was made. I just have the JPEG image.

Sorry for answering so late.

thx a thousand

I don't get it... each of these allready has to have the one PIC installed and running with the firmware, but how do you install the first one!?
PLEASE RESPOND!!!
I don't wan't to be chasing windmills and will rather buy the starterkit if i can't make one myself.
