About this item

The PIC ICD2 / PICkit 2 / PICkit 3 Programming Burner Adapter is a versatile programming and debugging interface board designed to simplify the process of programming Microchip’s PIC microcontrollers. Compatible with ICD2, PICkit 2, and PICkit 3 programmers, this adapter allows for easy connection between your programmer and a wide variety of DIP-packaged PIC microcontrollers, eliminating the need for custom wiring or breadboard setups. This adapter features ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) sockets to securely and conveniently insert PIC ICs of various sizes (8-pin to 40-pin), making it highly flexible for development, testing, and prototyping. It also includes onboard ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) headers for directly programming microcontrollers already soldered onto a PCB. Clear silkscreen labels and pinouts help reduce errors during use. Designed with durability and ease-of-use in mind, the burner adapter has power supply selection jumpers, a crystal oscillator socket, and decoupling capacitors, making it suitable for both beginners and professionals working on standalone microcontroller projects. Whether you are burning a bootloader, updating firmware, or debugging code, this adapter ensures a stable and reliable connection between your PIC device and your programmer.
