This post is an overview of a test app that uses the Bus Pirate’s binary rawwire mode to program another Bus Pirate. This could be a handy way to unbrick one Bus Pirate with another. Eventually, we’d like it to program all PICs that don’t require a 13volt programming voltage (18FJ/FK, 24F, 30F, and 33F).

We’re having some problems getting it working though, and we put up one of Ril3y’s laser-cut Bus Pirate cases as a bounty for help solving the problem.

Download the current executable and source archive here, the latest source is in the SVN. Keep reading for an overview of the programmer application.

See the latest version on the documentation wiki.

By popular demand, here’s a second part to the original Bus Pirate 101 tutorial. This time we walk through the Bus Pirate user interface and demonstrate some basic stuff like bus modes, power supplies, pull-up resistors, and number entry. Even if you’ve worked with the Bus Pirate for a while, you might learn some new tricks in this detailed use tutorial written by the primary developer.

Unboxing photo by Uwe Bannow, thanks!
