In-circuit debugging allows the designer to run, examine, and modify the program while the PICmicro MCU is embedded in the hardware, thereby assisting the designer in debugging the firmware and hardware together.

Debug Express interacts with MPLAB IDE software. Programs can be run, stopped, and single-stepped. One breakpoint can be set and the processor can be reset. Register contents can be examined and modified when the processor is stopped. Debug Express requires MPLAB IDE version 7.40 or later.

I have a problem with ver. I can't write PIC24FJ64GA002. It works fine with previous ver. 2.55.02.I'm not able to reproduce this issue. I see no issue programming this part with v2.60.Note that recently the initial MCLR programming mode entry pulse for all Microchip programmer tools was standardized at 500us. This is significantly shorter than it used to be. If there is significant loading or capacitance on the MCLR signal the shorter pulse may cause problems.Edit: I have been able to reproduce the issue on another PC system.

In addition to getting 'programming failed', I also get a VPP error. LD, do you also get a VPP error? Hi,I was trying to dowload the from microchip website but it's giving some problem. I tried the link provided in this support forum thread aswell, but i was not successful.When i open the file using winzip/winrar it gives me a error message 'unexpected end of archive'.

I believe there is a problem with the microchip website for this particular download.Can you please help me to provide the working link where i can download the.NETframework for PICkit 2 V2.60Also, let me know whether i can use older version of.NET framework (v2.40a) to run latest version PICkit 2 v2.60. Worst case i can try this as i have a copy of.NET framework v2.40aMy ultimate objective is to use Logic Tool/UART Tool from V2.60, hence i tyring for this.Thanks & Regards. It is quite interesting to write or read a PICKit 3 chip by a PICkit 2.Have you tried lower the PICKit 2 Vdd for 0.1 V a step? We found this trick to make PICkit 2 'erase' and 'write' working on the PIC24Fs and dsPIC33Fs. Not sure what's the reason, but it does work every time when I get an issue. Sometime I have to lower the Vdd from 3.3V to about 3.02.9V to make it stable.

I also noticed at 3.3V, I almost got 100% failure rate, but with 3.2V to 2.9V, everything seems working fine.I don't understand what's the trick about this 0.1Volts drop on Vdd.
