Key Features

  • 6-pin Tag-Connect footprint for ICSP and JTAG programming
  • No-holes PCB design reduces board space and assembly cost
  • Compatible with Microchip PICkit, ICD, and REAL ICE programmers
  • Supports PIC, AVR, and ARM microcontroller families
  • Spring-loaded pins ensure reliable contact without soldered connector

Applications

The TC2030-MCP footprint is widely used in embedded product development where space-saving in-circuit programming is required, including IoT devices, industrial controllers, and consumer electronics. It enables engineers to program and debug Microchip microcontrollers directly on the PCB without a permanent connector, reducing board size and bill of materials cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the TC2030-MCP 6-pin footprint differ from a standard 6-pin ICSP header?

The TC2030-MCP uses a Tag-Connect footprint with 6 pads and no through-holes, saving approximately 6 mm x 6 mm of PCB area compared to a traditional through-hole ICSP header while delivering the same programming signals.

Which Microchip programmers are compatible with the TC2030-MCP footprint on a production board?

The TC2030-MCP footprint is compatible with Microchip PICkit 3, PICkit 4, ICD 3, ICD 4, and REAL ICE programmers via the 6-pin ICSP interface, supporting both 3.3 V and 5 V target systems.

Can the TC2030-MCP footprint be used for JTAG debugging as well as programming?

Yes. The TC2030-MCP supports both ICSP and JTAG connections through 6 pins, allowing full debug access including breakpoints, memory inspection, and single-step execution on supported PIC32 and AVR targets.
