This experiment creates a Hee Haw sound for an alarm. The diagram shows the number of cycles for the HEE and the time taken for each cycle, equates to a certain length of time. The frequency of the HAW is lower and the number of cycles must be worked out so that the time for the HAW is equal to the time for the HEE.
This is simple when writing the program. The values loaded into the two files for the HEE are reversed for the HAW.
The routine consists of two sections: HEE and HAW. Each section has two nested loops. The inner loop creates the length of time for the HIGH and LOW to produce a single cycle and the outer loop creates the number of cycles.

EXPERIMENT 8
A to D Conversion
This experiment shows 0-256 parts of a 10k potentiometer on the 8 LEDs. It is not accurate, but shows the concept of A to D conversion.
Many microcontrollers have an input that can read any value of voltage from 0v to 5v (and higher by using a voltage divider network). Normally there are 256 steps in this range to produce a resolution of approx 20mV for 0-5v scale. This is called an A to D input (A to D converter – analogue input) and is ideal for measuring voltages and other values that are classified as ANALOGUE. A very simple external circuit can be added to measure different parameters such as the change in resistance of a temperature probe and other analogue devices.
The PIC16F84 does not have an internal A to D converter, however we can create an A to D feature by using two lines and a sub-routine.
To create an analogue input, a capacitor “C” is connected in series with an unknown resistor (R) and charged via one of the lines of the microcontroller. The diagram below shows how this is done.
