Hello,
I've been posting in the piclist for advise on a USB pic programmer that
works under Linux and recieved alot of good suggestions. I'm currently
"on the fence" trying to decide between the following two options:
1. http://www.kitsrus.com/upuc.html#k150
Purchase the USB kit #150 from DIY electronics and write my own Linux
software for it. May require reprogramming the firmware and will
definetely consume quite a bit of time, however, it could then be shared
with others. My question for this is: Has anybody tried working with
any of the DIY kits on Linux and can offer any suggestions or advise?
2. http://www.voti.nl/wisp628/
Purchase a wisp628 kit and a USB/Serial converter (as many people have
done) which is known to work under Linux. My question here is: Can
somebody reccomend a USB/Serial converter to use and offer any feedback
on their experience with this option?
Just trying to provoke more discussion to help sway my decision. Thanks
for all the support.
