Pocket Programmer

Pocket Programmer

http://www.bubblesoftonline.com/pocket/pocket.html HOT! Tony Nixons Pocket Programmer. The Pocket Programmer is a stand alone serial programmer that can program most of the PICmicro®MCU range of microprocessors. (12C6xx, 16Cxxx, 16Fxxx, 18Cxxx) It works from a single 18VDC supply or with 2 X 9 volt batteries. Combine this with 64K of on board EEPROM which can store upto […]

Business Card PIC Programmer using PIC12F629 microcontroller

Business Card PIC Programmer This was my entry for the Hack A Day business card size circuit contest. I just zipped up the files and put them on my website. I’m posting it here because all the other entries seem to be on a blog for easy access. Hopefully this will make the project more […]

A new multi function power supply unit for my Embedded Lab

A new multi-function power supply unit for my Embedded Lab

One important parameter in embedded system designing is power consumption. This parameter is directly related to the battery lifetime, if the system is to be powered from a battery. In order to determine the power rating of your designed system, you need to know how much current the system draws from the source at a […]

RC5 remote control

RC5 remote control using PIC12F629

All remote controlled projects from this site can be controlled with remote controls which use the RC5 protocol, like the TV-remotes from Philips. When all buttons from such a remote are in use then you could make a remote control by yourself. Your own build remote control with only one button or maybe you want […]

Having fun with HC08

Having fun with HC08 using pic microcontroller

Here is a nice little project for a rainy weekend, all this can be accomplished over a weekend and for under USD 15. This page has gone through several rewrites, mainly to get rid of my ‘rant mode’ writing, but it seems I just need to write it out of myself. Feel free to skip […]

PIC32 Multimedia Expansion Board Review

PIC32 Multimedia Expansion Board Review Video

Review of the Multimedia Expansion Board for the PIC32 Start Kits from Microchip. In this review I’m going to show the board and it’s periphirals, and then I will show a couple of demostration applications.
