You may want to check the datasheet for the specific part you are going to use. the 16F628 datasheet, for example, specifies the absolute minimum voltage on MCLR at -0.3v. Ditto with the 877 and 84A. .. I added a diode in series with the VPP output from the emitter or Q1 (with the anode toward Q1's emitter) and a second shut diode from the MCLR pin to VSS (anode toward VSS). Now the VPP voltage at MCLR swings from -0.05v to +12.6 volts. I hope that's enough VPP. I may have to change out the 8.2v zener, I measured the voltage across it and it appears on the low side. I could also just connect a 1n4001 or two in series with it to raise the vpp supply. Anyway seems the programmer is safe now. Still need to put a scope to the PGC and PGD lines and check they are in spec. |
