Read/write program and data memory of microcontroller, Erase of program memory space with verification, Freeze-peripherals at breakpoint, Program up to 512K byte flash with the Programmer-to-Go, The MPLAB PICkit 3 allows debugging and programming of PIC? and dsPIC? Flash microcontrollers at a most affordable price point using the powerful graphical user interface of the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The MPLAB PICkit 3 is connected to the design engineer s PC using a full speed USB interface and can be connected to the target via an Microchip debug (RJ-11) connector (compatible with MPLAB ICD 2, MPLAB ICD 3 and MPLAB REAL ICE).
