Programming a PIC
Programming a PIC
The RepRap project uses PIC microcontrollers as the processors for each control board. These need to be loaded up with the appropriate firmware before they will operate properly.
You will need:
- a PIC programmer
- a PIC16F628 chip
- a computer with serial port
Insert the chip
Program the firmware
You'll need the firmware files. We have instructions on how to compile them.
