This document includes the programming specifications for the following devices:

1.0

OVERVIEW

The devices can be programmed using either the high-voltage In-Circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™) method or the

low-voltage ICSP™ method.

1.1

Hardware Requirements

1.1.1

HIGH-VOLTAGE ICSP PROGRAMMING

1.1.2

LOW-VOLTAGE ICSP PROGRAMMING

1.1.2.1

Single-Supply ICSP Programming

The LVP bit in Configuration Word 2 enables single-supply (low-voltage) ICSP programming. The LVP bit defaults to a

‘1’ (enabled) from the factory. The LVP bit may only be programmed to ‘0’ by entering the High-Voltage ICSP mode,

is available and only the High-Voltage ICSP mode can be used to program the device.
