All,
I'm crashing headlong into programming pics. I pulled gpasm and gpsim
for ubuntu, and am about to make a purchase. My end goal is to
prototype a LED driver (button input (toggle blinking on/off), LED
blinking at programmed rates on a breadboard (DIP), then switch to
SOIP-8 narrow for a pcb).
I've wrecklessly chosen the pic12f675 for the task. ;-)
It appears to be supported by the linux toolchains, I've found example
code in google's codesearch, and the Epic plus programmer supports it.
My only trainwreck that I can see is the support for the Epic [1]
programmer in linux. It looks like Odyssey [2] supports the family, but
it hasn't been maintained for a few years. Also, the new home doesn't
load...
Am I on the right path? I'd like to get this project moving, but don't
want to waste money on the wrong programmer...
tia,
Jason.
