3.3.6.1 ICSP Target Connection

Connect a debugger directly to a PIC® MCU target using the ICSP® modular connector or inline connector on most MPLAB® debug tools. The connections to the 3.3.2 Debugger Adapter Board are the same as connections to target boards.

If the debugger and target have different connections (modular-to-inline or inline-to-modular respectively) a small adapter can be purchased to enable proper connections: “RJ11 to ICSP Adapter” (AC164110).

Alternatively, the MPLAB PICkit 5 using the adapter board provides an 8-pin 50-mil Microchip Universal connection for the 6-pin and 8-pin ICSP interfaces.
