My question is, Can I use the Jdm module to program this pic, there’s a huge physical difference beetween the PIC18F452 and this one, but maybe I just need to adapt the socket for the 16F84, or route the important pins to the new one.
Get a 18pin “machine pin” ic socket (these are harder to break ;)), compare the original JDM schematics and MBHP_JDM one - all the signals needed to program 16F84 can be taken from the socket of a MPHP_JDM.
So, use jumper wires to connect 18pin socket like in original schematics and leave some wires longer - to be plugged into MBHP_JDM.. (some additional wiring stuff is included for serial EEPROMs, but I’m no expert and don’t know what to leave out..)
