Using a 20-pin PIC on Matrix. M's HP488-00-3 Development Boa

[christoph]

Hi,

I would like to use a couple of 20-pin devices which ARE shown in Matrix Multimedia's device list but the above board does not have a direct facility for the 20-pin products.

I could make an adaptor board to fit any of the bus connections but not sure how the programming of the PIC via Flowcode and Matrix M's methodology works with this.

Any suggestions gratefully received....

Thanks in advance'

Chris

You should be able to program these chips via the U8/U14 socket. The lower 6 pins of the chip will not be in the socket and will therefore not work. But all of the power and programming pins should be connected ok.

Many thanks Steve - much appreciated Makes the board even more versatile.

Cheers,

Chris
