Hi, Firmware 0.4.0 autodetects pic16f88's fine, but 0.4.1 dosn't. P.S. would it be possible to program PIC16F1827 with a usbpicprog (with firmware changes)? They seem to need a VPP of 9V max, see: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/41390C.pdf alternativly can the upp do Low voltage programming? -- [http://pointless.net/] [0x2ECA0975] |

Dear Jasper Wallace, Have you tried firmware 0.4.0 with software 0.4.1? If that is true, I can rule out the software for bug tracking. I was getting a similar message about the 16F87XA. It doesn't autodetect, but reading / writing is fine. The funny thing is that the autodetection method is just the same as reading the code memory. About the 16F1827, it will be possible, but a Zener diode of 8V or 9V will be necessary on the target board, For the LF versions, also a 3.3V regulator will be needed.

I'm using 0.4.1 (I've got the fransschreuder1/usbpicprog-stable ppa setup on ubuntu). > About the 16F1827, it will be possible, but a Zener diode of 8V or 9V > will be necessary on the target board, > For the LF versions, also a 3.3V regulator will be needed. ok, thats good news. -- [http://pointless.net/] [0x2ECA0975] |

Dear Jasper Wallace, I have been checking the firmware, and the only difference between 0.4.1 and 0.4.0 concerning autodetection of pic16F devices is that autodetection now occurs with VPP before VDD. I have uploaded a (possible) fix to launchpad, revision 978. r978 is now building on launchpad, you could check https://launchpad.net/~fransschreuder1/+archive/usbpicprog-devel for it to become ready. Could you try the usbpicprog-devel PPA and see if this fixes the problem for you (with firmware 0.4.1 of course)? Thank you for your report.

Hi, with the usbpicproc from the -devel ppa and firmware 0.4.1 autodetection works with the pic 16f88. Thanks, and happy new year. -- [http://pointless.net/] [0x2ECA0975] |

Hi Jasper, That's great news! There is another bug that I have to fix, and when that has been fixed I will release 0.4.2-beta Happy new year! |
