 +===== Description =====
 +
 +The on-board programming connectors are a very easy tool, to program the chip on-board of GCAxxx and CAN-GCx units.\\
 +But after the development of many GCAxxx boards, the CAN-GCx board need a different connector, to meet the designs of MERG.\\
 +But also this MERG set-up did not match with the pins on a PICKIT3 connector.\\
 +This is mainly done to avoid damage, when PiCKIT3 is reversed connected\\
 +Also, the way that PICKIT3 appears to be plugged into the ICSP connector, is mechanicly rather very dangerous.\\
 +The PIC-ADAP ends all these discussions.\\
 +It provides a possibility to fix the PICKIT3 on the board, which wil protect the PICKIT3 from damaging.\\
 +The PIC-ADAP has connectors for a short a cable between ICSP connectors on bothCAN-GCx and GCAxxx families.\\
 +PIC-ADAP also provides sockets for direct programming various PIC chips.\\
 +And also the MYSmartUSB programmer for ATmega 28 pins chips can be connected, to program ATMEGA chips in the 28 Pins socket.\\
 +PicAdap4 also has a place for a SMD ZIF socket for 8 and 14 pins Pic processors.\\
 +Since this socket is rather expensive, it is NOT included in kit, and has to be ordered separately.\\
 +The latest PicAdap4 is available as PC-board OR kit.\\
