CHIPAXE - 8 pin
This is the smallest and original CHIPAXE module that includes a PIC12F683 microcontroller. It plugs directly into a breadboard and can be programmed through its 6-pin header that plugs directly into a PICkit 2/3 programmer. The module has the microcontroller socketed so you can replace it with any PIC12F 8-pin Microchip microcontroller.
The parts that can be used with this include:
PIC12F508, 509, 510, 519, 609, 615, 617, 629, 635, 675, 683, 752, 1501, 1822, 1840
The PIC12F683 is supported by the new Student edition of the PBP3 BASIC compiler and also all the 8-pin parts are supported by the free version of the Microchip HI-TECH C compiler, Microchip XC8 compiler and Gold version of PBP3.

8 pin Kit
The 8-pin module is available in a kit form without a microcontroller so you can build the module any way you want.
Used in Chuck Hellebuyck's book "Programming PICs in BASIC"
The 8-pin CHIPAXE module is featured in the book "Programming PICs in BASIC" by Chuck Hellebuyck. This book shows the fundamentals of programming the PIC12F683 in BASIC using the sample version of the PICBASIC Pro compiler.
