The PICkit 1 
Flash Starter Kit 
is a low-cost 
development kit 
with an easy-to-
use interface for 
programming 
Microchip’s
8/14-pin Flash 
family of 
microcontrollers. 
This starter kit is 

designed to help the user get up to speed quickly using 
PICmicro

®

 microcontrollers.

The kit provides everything needed to program, 
evaluate and develop applications using Microchip’s 
powerful 8/14-pin Flash family of microcontrollers. 
Instructions are provided in a series of seven tutorials 
that cover I/O, interrupts, A/D Converters, 
comparators, data tables and timers. All source code 
files for the tutorials are furnished.

Code development and debugging is performed using 
Microchip’s powerful MPLAB

®

 Integrated Development 

Environment (IDE). The MPLAB IDE is a seamless, 
integrated software development environment that 
includes an MPASM™ Macro Assembler, MPLAB SIM 
Software Simulator with symbolic debugger, 
color-coded source editor, project manager with 
high-level language debugging and concurrent support 
for development tools, including low-cost, in-circuit 
debuggers, full-featured, real-time emulators and 
programmers. The consistent and easy-to-use graphic 
user interface of the MPLAB IDE desktop allows for 
rapid switching between development, debugging and 
programming modes within a project.
