2.3.10 Erase
The Erase function erases the program memory, data EEPROM memory, ID and
Configuration bits. However, this function is not normally needed since the Write
function performs an erase operation prior to programming the PICmicro MCU.
To erase the device, click the Erase button.
Note: The PICkit 2 Microcontroller Programmer uses the bulk erase method that
requires V
DD voltage between 4.5 to 5.5V.
