This project describes an easy and inexpensive way of adding a digital thermometer and data logging feature to a PC. It involves a PIC microcontroller that gets the surrounding temperature information from the Microchip MCP9701 sensor, and sends it to a PC through an USB-UART interface. The USB port of the PC is also used […]
Few months ago Microchip introduced smallest, lowest-cost PIC32 microcontrollers – new PIC32”MX1” and PIC32”MX2” families. PIC32 MX1 and MX2 MCUs include up to 32 KB of Flash and 8 KB of SRAM, two I2S interfaces for audio processing, 10-bit 1 Msps ADC, an 8-bit Parallel Master Port and serial-communications peripherals. MX2 MCUs also have USB […]
I promised to post some of my past microcontroller vision projects. This one has a Microchip PIC directly sampling a video signal. 8 pins well used. Collapsible Quadruped Robot with Computer Vision, Laser Ranging, and Servo Control on a Single-Wire Network Photos and video capture by Glenn Currie. Download project design_files_PicVid97.zip. Austin Texas, 1997. I […]
Programming in PIC microcontroller can be done by using assembly language or by using Embedded C because of the ease of writing code.We have used done the programming through Embedded C language.For programming any microcontroller we need a IDE or Intregrated Developement Enviroment. In case of PIC microcontroller the official IDE is MPLAB Further several third […]
Perhaps this circuit is the simplest programmer for PIC microcontrollers you can build. It is connected to serial port of your PC and it has a very similar design with the SI-Prog programmer for the AVR microcontrollers. With the help of adaptors you can extend the possibilities and program more PIC microcontrollers. Notes By default […]
An automatic temperature control system has the ability to monitor and control the temperature of a specified space without human intervention. The primary purpose is to manage the temperature of a given area based on settings by a user of the system. This project uses a PIC microcontroller to automatically control the temperature of an […]
Measure distance while riding bicycle. Direct display in meter unit. Battery operated with Nitron 68HC908QY4, 16-pin MCU. Figure 1: Prototype of Distance Meter. This project demonstrates the use of 16×1 line LCD module to interface with Nitron 16-pin MCU, 68HC908QY4. The original idea came from one evening I went out with my son to the […]
PIC microcontroller was developed in the year 1993 by microchip technology. The term PIC stands for Peripheral Interface Controller. Initially this was developed for supporting PDP computers to control its peripheral devices, and therefore, named as a peripheral interface device. These microcontrollers are very fast and easy to execute a program compared with other microcontrollers. […]
Circuit-Zone.com – Electronic Projects For a long time I needed a good programmer pussy, even if it is programming, so from time to time the application gets where it is used. So I decided to build the programmer. I chose between a couple of projects from different authors, but eventually won PICkit2. Microchip released the […]
This project was sent by Electrical Engineer Atanasios Melimopoulos (Copyright (c) June 15, 2007) INTRODUCTION: In-Circuit-Debuggers, as you may already know, have become the PIC’s debugging standard tool for many programmers because it’s easy use and handy interface to the target picplaced- board. They come with MPLAB plug-ins that provides a full rich set of […]
