There may come a time in your chipKIT explorations when you have to put some new firmware onto your board. Well, fear not. This Instructable will go through how to load firmware onto your board. (We’re gonna be using the WF32) In order for us to upload firmware you’ll need a few things. A chipKIT […]

This is a closed-caption decoder with serial output based on a Microchip PIC16F628A. The internal comparators of the PIC16F628A are used to implement a peak detector and data slicer. The hardware was designed by Richard Ottosen, and the firmware was written by Eric Smith. This closed-caption decoder does NOT overlay captions on video (OSD, on-screen

There has not been a simple addressable LED library for PIC32 microcontrollers until now! The PICxel library is an MPIDE library that handles the timing required to use addressable LEDs (WS2812, WS2811) or more commonly known as Adafruit Neopixels. Going through through a couple steps will allow your to get started with the PICxel library.

This article shows how to use the PIC16F84 microcontroller with PicBasic to design a quick & effective, serially controlled, I/O-Expander. Using PicBasic makes developing handy single-chip devices like this extremely simple. If you’re spending all your time programming in assembler, you’ll appreciate how simple PicBasic is to use, and how easily you can create single-chip

Hi Guys! This is a project that I made using pic microcontroller its an Electronic PIN Code Security System with real time clock and user define pin code features, this page contains all the details to make one yourself. ITS WORKING AND CONCEPT: Well by turning Security System on, it will ask for a PINCODE

With all LEDs you will need a power supply, some sort of way to send a signal (usually a microcontroller) and method of connecting the LED to your system… Admittedly, that sort of explanation is all things pretty vague (as a description), so instead it’s my opinion that the easiest way to explain the LEDs

This in-depth guide will go over the steps required to connect the chipKIT WF32 to LabVIEW using LabVIEW MakerHub LINX. LINX is used to interact with common embedded platforms like Arduino, chipKIT and myRIO. Digilent sells a bundle that includes the chipKIT WF32 and LabVIEW HomeBundle called the LabVIEW Physical Computing Kit. Feel free to
