Pietja built a free PICqueño DIP PCB. He also noticed that if the high current IO’s are enabled on the FTDI chip the reset button would not function.
Follow some of our other PICqueno build videos.
If you build a free PCB we’ll send you another one! Blog about it, post a picture on Flicker, whatever – we’ll send you a coupon code for the free PCB drawer.

Very neat layout.
I so want to change that FTDI chip to a PIC18F14K50 and put a debugger/programmer in it as well as a general purpose USB stack. If only the time gods would help out…
You can buy other people’s time, but why is it that you can never buy more time for yourself?
