Microchip’s PICkit 3In-Circuit Debugger/Programmer uses in-circuit debugging logic incorporated intoeach chip with Flash memory to provide a low-cost hardwaredebugger and programmer. In-circuit debugging offers these benefits:

• Low cost
• Minimum of additional hardware needed for debug
• Expensive sockets or adapters are not required

The PICkit3 Debug Express includes

• PICkit 3 Debugger/Programmer
• 44-pin demo board with a PIC18F45k20 microcontroller
• All hookup cables
• and a CDROM that includes the following:

▪ PICkit 3User’s Guide
▪ A series of 12 Lessons on C programming thatcover I/O, A/D converters, timers, interrupts, and data tables (All source codefiles are provided)
▪ A Debugging Tutorial on using the PICkit 3 as adebugger with the MPLAB IDE
▪ A FREE CCS compiler for thePIC18F45k20. (2kWord ProgramLimit).
▪ HI-TECH C PRO for PIC10/12/16 MCU Family in Lite mode.
▪Microchip’s MPLAB IDE software for a complete code developmentenvironment.
