1.2 Target market and purpose of the board
The PIC-KIT3 is a programmer/debugger that is controlled by a PC via MPLAB or MPLAB X IDE
under Windows OS. The PIC-KIT3 programmer/debugger is used for hardware and software
development of Microchip PIC microcontrollers (MCUs) and dsPIC Digital Signal Controllers
(DSCs) that are based on In-Circuit Serial Programming (ICSP) and Enhanced In-Circuit Serial
Programming 2-wire serial interfaces.
