NOPPP9x:

The No Parts PIC Programmer for Windows95-98.

 

 
NOPPP is a very simple PIC programmer hardware and software, it works with the following micro-controller chips:
PIC16C84, PIC16F84 and PIC16F83.
For more info, visit the page of the original NOPPP:
http://www.CovingtonInnovations.com/noppp
 
I decided to port the software to windows. This more than a port is a a rewrite of the code, a translation of it into Windows' VB.
The result is NOPPP9x.
Any help, hints, info, bugs, etc is greatly appreciated.

I did the port for several reasons, first, I wanted to practice my Visual Basic programming skills, and porting code from C was a very interesting idea, specially since the original code accessed the hardware ports and worked with variables bit-wise.

Other reason is that I used "noppp" very often, and as I work in MPlab for windows for developing, I was looking for a more friendly interface.

Lastly, as I learnt from the code, I wanted to implement a way to dump the program from the pic. This feature is present in the first public version of my software. And many users reported it works ok.

In order to enable this feature, you are encouraged to register the software, thank you. 

 


*First, you need the NOPPP (programmer) hardware, for more info. look at the home page of the original NOPPP for dos.
(http://www.CovingtonInnovations.com/noppp)

    Here I present the circuit of the NOPPP hardware.

*Then you need a PIC and a program of course. The program must be in hex format. I will implement the loading of binary (.bin) files later if ppl really ask for such a feature.
