LED message system on a Strida folding bicycle wheel After I’ve bought my strida folding bicycle, one of the first things I’ve done was to check out instructables.com for any strida related projects. And quite astonished to see that there wasn’t any. So I’ve planned to make an instructable that can be used on my […]

I hope that you already go through the first tutorial of MPLAB XC8, Getting Started with MPLAB XC8 – LED Blinking. In that tutorial we learn how to use an output pin by driving an LED. In this we will learn how to read an Input pin using a push button switch. We already seen

Description This project functions as a simple strobe for driving an LED. The use of an output transistor allows it to pulse the strobe LED with a current up to 100mA. Four jumpers provide options for changing the pulse width, strobe repeat interval and single or double strobe flash. The programmer ready code has default

This is the second tutorial of our PIC Tutorial Series. In our previous tutorial Getting started with PIC Microcontroller: Introduction to PIC and MPLABX, we learnt the basic stuff about our PIC microcontroller, we also installed the required software and purchased a new PicKit 3 programmer which we will be soon using. Now we are

In our previous two tutorials we discussed How to Get Started with PIC using MPLABX and XC8 compiler, we have also made our First LED Blinking Program with PIC and verified it by simulation. Now it’s time for us to get our hands on to the hardware. In this tutorial we will build a small

In our previous tutorial, we learnt about Blinking a LED using PIC microcontroller and built the same circuit on Perf board. Then we used PICkit 3, ICSP and MPLAB IPE for dumping the program onto our Perf board. Now, in this tutorial we will advance our self to using more pins on the PIC microcontroller.

LED dot matrices are very popular means of displaying information as it allows both static and animated text and images. Perhaps, you have encountered them at gas stations displaying the gas prices, or in the public places and alongside highways, displaying advertisements on large dot matrix panels. In this experiment, we will discuss about the

In Lab 6, we discussed about interfacing a seven segment LED display to a PIC microcontroller. The seven segments were driven individually through separate I/O pins of the microcontroller. If we do just like that then for 4 seven segment LED displays, 28 I/O pins will be required, which is quite a bit of resources
