Brief Introduction:
QLS PICkit 3 is new design Enhanced PICKIT 3 programmer/debugger, this item is a
simple, low-cost in-circuit debugger that is controlled by a PC running MPLAB
IDE (v8.20 or greater) software on a Windows platform. The PICkit 3
programmer/debugger is an integral part of the development engineer¡¯s tool
suite. The application usage can vary from software development to hardware
integration.
This PICkit 3 programmer/debugger is a debugger system used for hardware and
software development of Microchip PIC microcontrollers (MCUs) and dsPIC Digital
Signal Controllers (DSCs) that are based on In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP)
and Enhanced In-Circuit Serial Programming 2-wire serial interfaces. In addition
to debugger functions, the PICkit 3 programmer/debugger system also may be used
as a development programmer.
The debugger system executes code like an actual device because it uses a device
with built-in emulation circuitry, instead of a special debugger chip, for
emulation. All available features of a given device are accessible
interactively, and can be set and modified by the MPLAB IDE interface.
The PICkit 3 allows debugging
and programming of PIC and dsPIC Flash microcontrollers at a most affordable
price point using the powerful graphical user interface of the MPLAB Integrated
Development Environment (IDE). The MPLAB PICkit 3 is connected to the design
engineer's PC using a full speed USB interface and can be connected to the
target via an Microchip debug (RJ-11 or 6pin) connector (compatible with MPLAB
ICD 2, MPLAB ICD 3 and MPLAB REAL ICE). The connector uses two device I/O pins
and the reset line to implement in-circuit debugging and In-Circuit Serial
Programming?.The PICkit 3 can now also reprogram any PIC microcontroller with a
simple push of a button.

Header Information:
Some 8-, 14- and 18-pin devices use small header boards with a special MCU for
debugging. This special MCU has extra pins for PICkit 3 communication and
therefore allows the use of all pins on the part for the application. The header
board is not used or needed for programming. However, when debugging these
devices the header must be used. See the "Header Specification" document below
or see a list of current devices that use headers
here.
