Anyone thought of doing a generalized 40 pin PIC Carrier board ?

What I mean is this :

The basic components like ICSP Header, MAX232/USB, LCD Connector, Power supply etc are present as (pluggable) modules on the protoboard and they can be connected to the correct pins when a certain PIC is inserted via jumpers.

I am also looking out for ideas of a physically isolated ICSP connector (which isolates the PGC/PDG/VCC/GND) pins via jumpers.

Any pointers ?
 

Are you familiar with proton VSM it's nice to make a trainer there I'll give you my sample design of trainer board if you like just pm me.

@nomad13, I am not familiar with the tool.. are there demo versions available ?

If you can convert it to EAGLE/PDF format, it would help me a lot.
 

There is a demo software available on the internet try looking for proteus lite. You can google it.

Happy programming.
 

Don't forget the trainer files :)
 

Try this circuit.
 

Here's my version of universal board: all ports on separate 10-pin headers with pull-ups/pull-downs (jumper), integrated max232 and USB connector, DC plug with 7805 and 4 multiplexed SPI connectors and an ICSP (RJ12) plug. Board can be powered either from USB, DC plug or ICSP

But, there are two design errors to fix:
1. DB9 connector was routed male, it's pinout must be mirrored 'cause it has to be female, and

2. LED's that are connected to 74HC138 either must be omitted, or their power negated, 'cause in this configuration, they are always lit(CS signal is active low and I forgot about it).

P.S: Files are in OrCAD.
