LIMITATIONS
B.8.1
General Limitations
• View the “Readme for MPLAB PM3.txt” file for a list of currently supported 
devices.
• Program memory ranges that are not code-protected may only be changed from a 
‘1’ to a ‘0’. Most devices need to be erased before they can be reprogrammed. 
DataEE does not need to be erased before it is programmed; however, it is 
programmed one location at a time. For more information, consult the specific 
programming specification for your device.
• Some devices program multiple locations at once. MPLAB PM3 therefore inhibits 
programming ranges not aligned to these bounds. See individual programming 
specifications for more information.
B.8.2
Device-Specific Limitations
In addition to the general limitations listed above, some PICmicro MCUs may have 
device-specific limitations. Select the device family limitations listed below, or search 
for your device in the index.
B.8.2.1
MPLAB PM3 LIMITATIONS FOR PIC18C601/801
• Your own memory read/write routines must be used for these ROMless devices.
B.8.2.2
MPLAB PM3 LIMITATIONS FOR ALL DEVICES
• For ICSP you must connect the AV
DD
 and AV
SS
 pins in addition to the V
DD
 and 
V
SS
 pins for the device to program.
