Hi All,
First post here so Hi
Im new to pics and quite excited. (Nerdy I know but hey) and I have read the sticky here about newbies like me. There are a few sites I have read and as some are old and some are new I thought I would ask a few questions please. If they are stupid or exist somewhere else then I do appolagise.
I have decided to go with 18Fs. I see from the sticky that I can program them via USB without a hardware programmer but I would need a hardware programmer to put a bootloader on first. Is this really correct? I was hoping not to buy a hardware programmer. Can you buy PICs with the bootloader already on?
I would like to program in C and I am downloading boostC. Are there any good examples out there other than ones on the vendor site?
Thanks for your time guys
Merry xmas and take care
Danny
