USB 8-Way Handheld PIC Programmer

USB 8-Way Hand Held PIC Programmer for PIC Microcontrollers

Multiple program version of the popular Kanda HandHeld Field and Production PIC Programmer for PIC microcontrollers, with 2MB of memory. Just load the Handheld PIC Programmer from a PC using the Hand Held PIC Programmer USB Starter Kit, with up to 8 different programs and different PIC microcontrollers as the target. Now you just plug it into your target board, select which program to use and program and verify Code, Data, User ID and Configuration Bytes with a single button press. It can power your target PIC microcontroller using internal battery or 9V external Power supply.

This 8-way Handheld PIC Programmer is ideal for field testing or updates where multiple files may be needed. You can set it to program the whole PIC microcontroller or just the Data memory (PIC16F only). It supports PIC16F and PIC18F microcontrollers.
Now supports PIC18FxxJxx and PIC18FxxKxxx PIC microcontroller families.
