This post provides an example code to use PIC16F84A pins as inputs. After going through this example, you will understand how to make PIC16F84A pins as inputs and how to read their value in the code. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler.You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ […]

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

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

The ‘One Chip Spinning RGB POV Display’ with conversion software. If you have been on the look out for a project that combines, RGB LED’s, a motor, a microcontroller and a ridiculous amount of hot melt glue, then you have certainly come to the right place. Allow me to introduce the ‘One Chip’ Spinning RGB
The Saltwater etch process This is a one-off process to produce one printed circuit board by removing unwanted copper by electrolysis in a saltwater solution. I shall illustrate the process by etching and building a board for 18-pin PIC (for the PC16F54, but any 18 pin PIC will fit in it) in the figure. It

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

Embedded system An embedded system is designed to perform one function with real-time applications. Embedded systems are found in simple devices like calculators, microwave & television remote controls and also in more complicated devices such as a home security and neighborhood traffic control systems. Many Talented people can take the advantages of simple embedded systems

A Microchip PIC based servo controller offering many of the capabilities of digital servos for under $9! The controllers capture the r/c receiver output, optionally manipulate the samples, then regenerate new servo control signals. As such, they greatly enhance what is possible with cheap servos. They were created for my Steam Turret Tank Instructable. Here
