Here’s the minimal code to make timer 1 (a 16 bit timer) work using PICBasic. General descriptions of PIC timer variables used to control the timer: (you should be able to use these no matter what programming language you use): T1CON.0 is the first bit of the timer configuration byte, this bit is used to […]

Presented is a simple temperature alarm which uses a PIC16C84 microcontroller and a 2-line LCD display. The alarm displays current temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit degrees and features a 3-key keypad which allows the user to set independent high and low termperature alarm points. The alarm also records the minimum and maximum temperatures encountered.

I’ve had good cause to be reading and perusing a few old Circuit Cellar articles every day for the past several weeks. We’re preparing the upcoming 25th anniversary issue of Circuit Cellar, and part of the process is reviewing the company’s archives back to the first issue. As I read through Circuit Cellar 143 (2002)
