The MPLAB ICD 3 is an in-circuit debugger and programmer by Microchip, and is the latest in the ICD series. [5] The ICD 3 connects to the engineer's PC via USB, and connects to the device via ICSP. [5] The ICD 3 is entirely USB-bus-powered, and is 15x faster than the ICD 2 for programming devices. [5]
MPLAB is still available from Microchip's archives, but is not recommended for new projects. [19] It is designed to work with MPLAB-certified devices such as the MPLAB ICD 3 and MPLAB REAL ICE, for programming and debugging PIC microcontrollers using a personal computer. PICKit programmers are also supported by MPLAB.
Microchip Technology was founded in 1987 when General Instrument spun off its microelectronics division as a wholly owned subsidiary. [5] [6] The newly formed company was a supplier of programmable non-volatile memory, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, card chip on board, and consumer integrated circuits.
Applied Materials, Inc. is an American corporation that supplies equipment, services and software for the manufacture of semiconductor (integrated circuit) chips for electronics, flat panel displays for computers, smartphones, televisions, and solar products.

Maxim was founded in April 1983. The founding team included Jack Gifford, a semiconductor industry pioneer since the 1960s and co-founder of Advanced Micro Devices; Fred Beck, an IC sales and distribution pioneer; Dave Bingham, General Electric’s Scientist of the Year in 1982; Steve Combs, a pioneer in wafer technologies and manufacturing; Lee Evans, also a pioneer in CMOS analog microchip ...
Microsemi was founded in February 1959 [5] in Culver City, California [6] as MicroSemiconductor. It incorporated in Delaware on September 27, 1960. [7] A trade catalog and price lists from this early period can be found at the Smithsonian Institution. [8]
The software for the Microchip PICkit 2 and PICkit 3 in-circuit debugger/programmers was released by Microchip in 2009 and 2012 respectively. The software is open source and not maintained by Microchip. Consequently, there is no support for modern operating systems or new PIC microcontrollers.
