The PICkit 2 Development Programmer/Debugger kit contains the following items:
1. The PICkit 2 Development Programmer/Debugger
2. USB cable
3. PICkit Starter Kit and MPLAB IDE CD-ROMs
Additionally, the PICkit 2 Starter Kit and PICkit 2 Debug Express kit both contain a
demo board with a PIC microcontroller device.
The PICkit 2 Development Programmer/Debugger is a low-cost development program-
mer. It is capable of programming most of Microchip’s Flash microcontrollers and serial
EEPROM devices. For specific device support, see the README file included on the
PICkit 2 Starter Kit CD-ROM.
New device support can be added by updating the programming software. The latest
software is available on Microchip’s web site page for the PICkit 2:
