Device programming details

Device: PIC24FJ128GA306-I/PT [ISP Mode]

  • Manufacturer(s): Microchip
  • Device type: Microcontroller / PICmicro

Microchip PIC24FJ128GA306-I/PT [ISP Mode] is programmed "in-system", i.e. being installed on a board. The matrix below lists Phyton device programmers that support the PIC24FJ128GA306-I/PT [ISP Mode] device in-system programming and appropriate cable-Adapters or device library licenses.

Powering the target device:
There are two alternative options for powering the targets:
1. The target gets power from the programmer (Vdd). This is possible only if the target does not consume too much energy. A capacity of the target power circuitry should not exceed 50 uF.
2. The target gets power from a built-in or external power supply. In this case the power output from the programmer should not be connected with the target. The target system should be tolerant to applying logical signals with the voltage levels exceeding the voltages on the target.
NOTE! It is strictly prohibited to power the target from both the programmer and built-in or external power supply simultaneously.

Isolating resistors:
Purpose of the R2..R3 resistors is to isolate the programmed chip from rest of target system. Recommended value of resistors R2..R3 is 2k or more. You can also use jumpers instead of the resistors.

ISP characteristics:
1. Programmer''s output capability:
1.1 Vcc - 80 mA;
1.2 Vpp - 50 mA;
1.3 logical pins - 5 mA.
2. The cable length should be less then one foot.
/Start is the input signal, active state is 0. This signal works as the Start button on the programmer.
/Error, /Good, /Busy are output logical signals, active state is 0. They indicate the programmer status and work as the corresponding LEDs on the programmer case.

Adapter Connection Table:

All power supply pins included AVdd must be powered. All ground pins included AVss must be connected together.
