PIC32 Realtime Network Audio
Supported Browser For optimal experience with the equations, please use a browser that can render MathML, such as Firefox or Safari. Chromium-based browsers apparently do not support MathML. Introduction This project sends and receives low-latency audio over the network using the PIC32 microcontroller. In this project, we implemented a system that sends audio packets over […]
MATLAB to PIC serial interface using PIC16F877 microcontroller
MATLAB to PIC serial interface some code to let MATLAB talk to a PIC16f877 via the serial port. This isn’t that hard nor is it much code, but I spent a decent amount of time figuring it all out (starting from scratch), so I figured it would be helpful. Enjoy. Code with comments below is […]
3x3x3 LED Cube using PIC16F690 microcontroller
3x3x3 LED Cube Here is my 3x3x3 LED Cube project. It runs using a PIC16F690. Along with the brief explanation of how to make it, I have also included the .asm file for the PIC and a piece of software written in VB.NET that you can create your own LED patterns. These can be exported […]
PIC development/testing board using PIC16F877 microcontroller
PIC development/testing board Here’s a PCB design for a bare bones PIC16F877 development board. All you need is a 4mhz crystal, two 22pf caps, one 4.7k resistor, and eight 470 ohm resistors, a 7805 regulator (not necessarily necessary, read below), and some LEDs (you don’t need to put all 33 LEDs on, just as many […]
DTMF Touch Tone Decoder Using Microchip PIC Microprocessor using PIC12F683
DTMF Touch Tone Decoder Using Microchip PIC Microprocessor This project contains the details of using a Microchip PIC12F683 8 bit microprocessor to detect DTMF tones. The completed program allows the processor to be programmed with a string of DTMF tones to detect. If the programmed string is detected in the audio applied the audio input, […]
Co-op Virtual Reality Maze: ECE 4760
Introduction Our project is a collaborative game in which two people work together on different devices to navigate a maze, one on the PIC and the other on a VR headset. Each player lacks crucial knowledge about the maze that would allow them to reach the end — the user on the PIC has a […]
Control a Hobby Servo using PIC18F2455 microcontroller
Use a PIC Microcontroller to Control a Hobby Servo This instructable describes how to integrate hobby servos (the kind used in RC planes, cars, etc.) into your microcontroller projects. How Servos are Different from Regular Motors In a regular DC motor, the amount of torque the motor exerts on the shaft is proportional to the […]
How to make a Clap-Clap on / Clap-Clap Off switch circuit! using PIC10F222
How to make a Clap-Clap on / Clap-Clap Off switch circuit! Hi all! This instructable not only gives the reader the information needed to create a clap-clap on/clap clap off switching circuit, but the logic used to make a hardware-only clap-on, clap off circuit. More information on a hardware-only version can be found in the […]
