Building the Inchworm ICD2 PIC Programmer / Debugger This instructable is an illustrated walk through building an ICD2 clone called the Inchworm. It’s a straight forward kit that lets you build an MPLAB ICD2 compatible Programmer and Debugger. There are lots of Programmers out there but very few include a debugger, (A debugger lets you […]

This IR remote control that you can use to control other devices or circuits up to 8 devices. The control codes are sent in RC5 format modulated to about 38 kHz carrier frequency.The IR transmitter powered by the CR2016 which is a 3V button Cells Battery CR2016.To extend the life of the battery this is
Both, Parallel and Serial modes of communication have certain advantages and disadvantages over one another. The serial communication is a preferred option due to its ability of long distance communication with error detection capability. The microcontrollers consist of an inbuilt hardware unit known as USART (Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Reception and Transmission) to facilitate serial transfer
Short description of the operation: External circuit converts bass beat of music into pulses. The motor is controlled by them. If theres bass beat recognised then the motor rotates one direction (in full stepping) for a predefined time then stops. If the second beat comes in then it rotates again for the same time and

Electrical The main components of the electrical system were the timing system and the LED control system for 40 LEDs using a single PIC. A schematic of the system is shown below (click for larger view): timing In order to time the display properly to achieve persistence of vision, the PIC needs to record the
Simple expansion board for 8051SBC provides easy USB port and graphic LCD interface. I am planning to design the x86 board for some of my application that needs more computing capability. One of the features that I need to add to the x86 board is the USB port. I found the ASIC that enables 8-bit

The I²C full master MSSP module is available with a number of PIC MCU models. mikroC PRO for PIC provides library which supports the master I²C mode. Important : Some MCUs have multiple I²C modules. In order to use the desired I²C library routine, simply change the number 1 in the prototype with the
Always the right time and date with DCF77 This project make use of a PIC16F628(A) and a DCF77 receiver from Conrad (Orderno. 64 11 38) Optional there is a possibility to connect an electronic gong on it. Click for information about DCF77 on the link underneath: The working from the DCF77 time signal Connect the output from the
