Just one PIC to use it as counter with multiple functions. Here is the pin information: PIN FUNCTIONS: CLEAR/COUNT – GND to clear count, VSS to count. SAVE COUNT – GND start from zero on power up, VSS continue last count. C CATHODE/C ANODE – GND to use COMMON CATHODE Display, VSS to use […]
Digital electronics and Analog electronics doesn’t mix easily. A Microcontroller can’t get analog values unless an Analog-to-Digital converter is used, however, you may find a little complicated the use of an ADC and it need lots of Input/Output ports. Some Microcontrollers, like the small 8-pin Microchip PIC 12F675, do have an ADC integrated, but

Description PIC RGB is a circuit that generates random RGB colors using a RGB LED and fades between them. The idea for this circuit came from the candle simulator [1] and another project called TinyRGB [2] . The challenge was to create an algorithm that could fade 3 independent colors at different speeds in the

Introduction The idea of our final project is to design and implement a PIC32-drived 8x8x8 LED cube with 3-dimensional display. Besides 3D display feature, another major feature of this magical LED cube is that it provides a playing field and users can play 3D snake game on the cube by using NES controller. Six buttons
