Hi, I haven't been on here for a very long time and not sure where to post my question! Sorry if I am in the wrong section of the forum mods!
I have a pic micro dev board v3. Bought it back in 2006 from you Ben and the rest of the team in Halifax!!!
Anyway, my question is... can I program EEProm chips using this board? Will ppp support an external eeprom chip part 93c56?
EEPROM-93C56

Re: EEPROM-93C56
Hello,
I seem to remember you coming in and buying the board. Glad your still using it
The dev board itself will not allow stand alone EEPROM devices to be reprogrammed though you could program a microcontroller to do the programming for you.
E.g. connect to a PC via a USB232 E-block or stream the data from a SD card. Take the data in a byte at a time to the microcontroller and then forward on to the EEPROM.
A PICkit is very low cost to purchase and might be able to do it directly but I would double check first.

Re: EEPROM-93C56
Ahh Ben glad you remember! Think we went to the same uni too 
Right I see. Well I have no idea how I can go about this especially in C I'm very rusty
Could I do this in flowcode?
So basically I would be making my own programmer using a pic, say 16f88. Then I could run it all of my pic dev board.
Suppose easy option would be to buy a eeprom programming kit but there is no fun in that!
