  • Hi Mike.

     

    I'm using the PIC16f877 with the microchip ICD2. I've reached the point in this project where the debugging is over and the microcontroller is now required to run independently of the PC as part of a stand-alone device.

     

    I've tried to program the device in program mode in the MPLab IDE but the device doesn't work after it's switched off and on again. What needs to be done to get the PIC to operate independently? Is it some kind of jumper on the MCLR pin?

     

    Thanks very much,

    Richard
