The goal: to learn the CCP module
What do we have: PIC16f628a, the simple devboard + proteus.
I’m going to take a look into the CCP module (Capture/Compare/PWM).
Looking at the name you already can say that you can:
1. Capture
2. Compare
3. Generate PWM pulses
More stuff inside
Continue readingAt that point of time, I did not have a lot of possibilities to buy any commercial development board, so I had to make my own
I wanted to make a small board, not those huge with everything you can imagine, and, perhaps, never going to use. A 3d model shows what I wanted and what I made: 4 buttons + 4 LED hanging on the PORTB. There is also one button and one LED for PORTA. Everything can be disconnected from the microcontroller using the dip switch.
The goal: the same as previous, to get the 1KHz pulse.
What do we have: PIC16f628a, the simple devboard + proteus.
For this particular uC the timer2 module is another 8bits timer, which has some peculiarities.
The goal: to get 1 Hz pulses.
What do we have: PIC16f628a, a handmade devboard, and proteus
Continuing to learn pic microcontrollers, and the timer1 is the next module in our way. Usually, this is a 16bit timer, so it allows to have a larger time frame.
The task: To learn how to use the comparator
Tools: PIC16f628a, proteus
Task: To learn how to control LCD display
Tools: PIC16f628a, LCD 2×16, proteus
Let me try to make the display work in the proteus
Continue readingIt was 2012 year, I was just starting to learn how to work with the PIC microcontrollers, so the code is far away from optimal.
uC: PIC16F628a
Compiler: Hi-TECH PICC
Goal: To connect 7 segment indicator and display numbers from 0 to 9
uC: PIC16F628a
Compiler: Hi-TECH PICC
Goal: To make pulses with frequency 5Hz
Timer TMR0 module frequently used in many applications, it has next useful options:
In that experiment we will make it without using interruptions.
uC: PIC16F628a
Compiler: Hi-TECH PICC
Goal: To connect button and learn how to enable IO
uC: PIC16F628a
Compiler: Hi-TECH PICC
Goal: To make led blink with certain frequency
