README file for Low Pin Count Demo Board Lessons

These projects are intended for use with the Lessons in 
Chapter 3 of the Low Pin Count Demo Board User's Guide.

MPLAB WARNING:
If these lessons are programmed from within MPLAB using
the PICkit 2 as a programmer, the Demo Board Switch (SW1)
will not work unless a change is made to the default
PICkit 2 Programmer Settings.
In the MPLAB IDE, after selecting PICkit 2 as the Programmer,
select "Programmer > Settings".  In the Settings dialog,
Check the box marked '3-State on "Release from Reset"'

DEBUGGING IN MPLAB:
The PIC16F690 does not include In-Circuit-Debug functionality,
so the DIP part included with the Low Pin Count Demo Board
will not work with the PICkit 2 in debug mode.

To debug using the PIC16F690, the AC162061 - "MPLAB ICD 2
Debug Header Interface for PIC16F690" must be used.
It will also be necessary to use the AC164110 - "RJ-11 to 
ICSP Adapter" to connect the PICkit 2 to the ICD Header.
