The Compact Flash Library provides routines for accessing data on Compact Flash card (abbr. CF further in text). CF cards are widely used memory elements, commonly used with digital cameras. Great capacity and excellent access time of only a few microseconds make them very attractive for microcontroller applications. In CF card, data is divided into […]

PIC16F877 LCD code and Proteus simulation
This PIC16F877 microcontroller tutorial provides very detailed and comprehensive LCD[1] code. Using PIC16 simulator (Proteus) you can verify this LCD code and change it according to your needs. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ section at the bottom of this page. It is […]
contruction of personal Radar System using PIC MIcrocontroller PIC18f452
Personal Radar System using PIC MIcrocontroller PIC18f452 is a microcontroller hobby project. The circuit diagram of radar is attached here below seemed a little bit simple schematic but you need careful reading of PIC18f452 radar circuit to avoid any damage. The project of personal Radar System using PIC MIcrocontroller PIC18f452 uses three main devices to […]
01/\/atch using PIC16F913 microcontroller
Intro: 01/\/atch The 01/\/atch, because… “there are 10 types of people in the world, those who read binary, and those who don’t” – a slashdot tag line. The 01/\/atch is a binary wrist watch with an LED display. Additional features are accessible through a scrolling menu system on its 3×4 LED matrix. Current features include: […]
Aurora mini 18 using PIC24FV16KA302 microcontroller
Aurora mini 18 My obsession of this year is full-color LED. I have made Aurora 9×18 as a result. As much as I love the scale of Aurora 9×18, I also wanted to have something smaller, perhaps something that can go on a costume? Here’s Aurora mini 18. It has 18 full-color/RGB LEDs on a […]
Connect to the PIC Microcontroller
A Simple Development Board Ok, so you have now got your programmer, and you have a PIC or two. It is all very well knowing how to program the PIC in theory, but the real learning comes when you try your code on a PIC and see the results yourself in a circuit. You could […]
SD Memory Card Interface using pic microcontroller
SD memory cards, especially the ones under 1GB are cheap, relatively easy to interface and provide vast amounts of memory for imbedded control. This device lets you ‘talk’ to sd cards through your serial port. Communication is in ASCII so you just need a terminal program to access it. (Note: the photos shown are of […]
PIC12F675 Microcontroller Based Security Alarm Circuit
Crime in general is still on the rise, and having a security alarm installed is no longer a perquisite of the wealthy! Here is a simple and compact security alarm system to protect your home/shop and valuables. The circuit is built around a tiny microcontroller chip PIC12F675. Besides, a ready-made Passive Infrared (PIR) module is […]
Tejas Kulkarni’s Lab Notebook using pic microcontoller
Week 01 August 15, 2010 (2 hours): Met as a team after class to finish writing preliminary project proposal. January 17, 2010 (2 hour): Brained stormed the possibilities of developing a multi-touch table. The Multi-touch table would require an external camera as an interface for the Computer Vision Algoithm. I researched that algorithms that fall […]
DMM Piggyback (add RS-232) using PIC16F688 microcontroller
DMM Piggyback (add RS-232) There are mods that give a multimeter serial connectivity by soldering some pins but, it only works if it already has RS-232 ability. So I decided rather than building a PIC multimeter from scratch, I would Piggyback off a $4 DMM. I used: one PIC16F688 one LM358 a button and a […]
