Hello, jsgonsette,
I am from Switzerland and work for an electronics company, in an apprenticeship training department. We saw your idea in a German magazine Elektror. We thought it was a great idea and wanted to copy it. We have all the components and the whole board is assembled. But we still can't program the dsPIC. We get the following error message (see pictures in the attachment):
Target Device ID (0x0) is an Invalid Device ID. Please check your connections to the Target Device. Would you like to continue?
Programmer: Pickit 3
Program MPLAB X v.4.00 (with the .hex file we tried the program: MPLAB IPE v.4.00)
Compiler: XC16 v.1.24
Maybe you can help us further. Thanks for the answer.
Best regards Roy
