• Here you can find Xisept software and hardware. Xisept is a quasi universal PIC and EEPROM programmer witch is able to program the folowing list of PICs:
  16F83, 16CR83, 16F84*, 16F84A*, 16CR84, 16C84, 16F872, 16F873, 16F874, 16F876, 16F877*, 12C508, 12C508A*, 12C509, 12C509A*, 12CE518*, 12CE519, 16C554, 16C556, 16C558, 16C61, 16C62, 16C62A, 16C62B, 16CR62, 16C63, 16C63A, 16CR63, 16C64, 16C64A*, 16C64B, 16CR64, 16C65, 16C65A, 16C65B, 16CR65, 16C66, 16C67, 16C620, 16C620A, 16C621, 16C621A, 16C622, 16C622B, 16CE623, 16CE624, 16CE625, 16C71, 16C72, 16C72A, 16C73, 16C73A, 16C73B, 16C74, 16C74A, 16C74B, 16C76, 16C77, 16C710, 16C711, 16C715.
  and EEPROMs:
  I2C: 24C00, 24C01, 24C02, 24C03, 24C04, 24C05, 24C08*, 24C09, 24C16*, 24C17, 24C32, 24C64, 24C128*, 24C256,
  Microwire: 93C06, 93C46*, 93C56*, 93C66, 93C76, 93C86
  SPI: 25C020*, 25C040, 25C057, 25C080, 25C097, 25C128, 25C138, 25C160, 25C170, 25C256, 25C320, 25C330, 25C640*, 25C650

• Xisept software is available in rpm package (tested under Mandrake 7.2 and Mandrake 8.0). You may also download sources in .tar.gz format. Sources are under GPL licence.
  Installation must be done in root. This is mandatory because Xisept need to access parallel port. Note that Xisept is a setuid program, so you may or you may not be able to run it without being root (gtk don't like anymore SUID program).
  To install rpm package, you can launch your package manager, or simply type rpm -i <package_name.rpm> in console.
  To install sources, uncompress file (tar zxvf <file.tar.gz>), then type make && make install.
  
  

• Hardware part is released with Areslite. This free softawre can be found at: http://www.multipower-fr.com You can run it under Linux using the windows emulator wine. Note that I don't recommand using this software, Eagle really run under Linux, and it is much more better.
