Hello everyone i have little problem, i am using 5 wire simple programer:
DB9---------PIC16F88
TXD(3)------4,7k---MCLR(4)
GND(5)-------------GND(5)--------GND
DTR(4)------4,7k---PGD(13)
CTS(8)-------------PGD(13)
RTS(7)------4,7k---PGC(12)
Also i connected 14pin to +5V.
I checked my com port connecting 4 and 8 pins and loaded WinPIC it showed: Initialising PIC-Programmer: Success. So my port is okey, when i tryed with my cable same thing, also Initialising PIC-Programmer: Success. when i connected my programmer to cable and to PIC16F88 and it was same either (Initialising PIC-Programmer: Success.). So when i measured my PIC 4 pin (MCLR) and it was 5-6V. When i checked tabs in WinPIC in Interface section (VPP (+13V) Clocl Data (to PIC)). I measured PIC again and it 4pin had 12-13V.

I tryed to write this code to my PIC.

list p=16F88 ; list directive to define processor
#include <p16F88.inc> ; processor specific variable definitions

errorlevel -302 ; suppress message 302 from list file

Do you use a USB to serial converter?

 

Do you use a USB to serial converter?

nope, its my home computer with Serial port.

 

I do not know your programmer hardware. Has it worked before? It may look like the chip is erased, but not programmed.
If you plan to replace your programmer get a PICKIT 2 or 3. They are cheap and work very well, as it is a Microchip design.

Once worked and thats it... this programmer ir only com connection 3 resistors 5 wires nothing more )) (ICSP). I dont know if dont find whats problem here, when i think i will really buy one

 

Many ICSP programmers may have problem if the pins used for programming are loaded(connected to something).

I disconnected everything only i give external power supply to chip +5V, to pin 14 and gnd to pin5, everything else is connected to my DB9 female.

 

I have no other ideas. If your programmer is homemade It could be everything from a bad solder joint, to faulty component. Perhaps in the circuit providing the VPP voltage.
Which country do you live in. If you are in Europa i know a place selling cheap PICKITs

Hm damn its so anoying :] i am from Lithuania in EU :] i searched in ebay for PicKit2. its quite cheap :] also if you can tell me :]

 

I think I have something Go to www.elfa.se, select your country. Then click in the "brain" and find the PICkit 2 Starter Kit. I guess you have a PC with a free USB 2.0 output

 

Just as you know it the PICKIT 2 programmer can program these PIC MCUs (in the link). It is the demo board that it limeted to 8,14, and 20 pins PIC MCUs

How long are the wires from your programmer to the chip? Using PicStart Plus, I have to keep those wires short, on the order of 10cm or less.

A couple of years ago using longer leads, I got a funny error in programming. I don't remember whether it was the same error as you are getting though.

PICStart Plus isn't an ICP programmer. It's a ZIF socket type programmer. Guess you modified it and brought out some wires, but yes short lead length is important.
Simple serial port programmers are notoriously unreliable on modern OS's and computers. They are also finicky about the RS232 voltage levels and don't work with USB to RS232 adapters.

Exactly. It is a common practice not even rising to the level of a hack. I simply made an adapter from a long-legged dip socket that goes into the ZIF socket. The appropriate wires are soldered to the dip socket.

Its quite long ~2m but i got from friend K128 usb programmer and its working nice Thank You all for your help :]
