    • The K150, when used with PonyProg (a universal EEPROM programmer) via the serial bridge mode, can program I2C EEPROMs. This is a hidden feature. Set PonyProg to use “Serial” and map to the CH340’s COM port. Do not use the K150’s PIC programming mode for this.

    Many K150 units pretend to be a PICkit 2. Try:

    Even after setup, Alex faced a few hiccups. Here’s how to fix them:

    | Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | “Programmer not found” | Run WinPIC800 as Admin. Reinstall libusb-win32 via Zadig. | | Verify errors | Reduce programming speed in WinPIC800 settings. | | Driver still fails | Disable Windows Driver Signature Enforcement (Shift + Restart → Advanced startup). | | Software freezes | Set compatibility mode to Windows 7 for WinPIC800.exe. | | K150 gets hot | Do not leave USB plugged in without use; some clones overheat. | Select the PIC:

    You will need two specific pieces of software.

    A. The K150 Software (MicroBrn) The standard software for the K150 is usually called MicroBrn. Load Code:

    B. The Driver (CH340 or PL2303) The K150 communicates via a USB-to-Serial converter chip. Most modern K150 clones use the CH340 chip, though some older ones use the PL2303.

    The K150 programmer is a popular, low-cost device for programming Microchip PIC microcontrollers. However, getting it to run on Windows 10 requires a specific approach, as the standard software often fails to recognize the device without the correct USB-to-Serial drivers.

    Here is the step-by-step preparation guide to get your K150 running.
