After doing two weeks on LCDs, I thought I’d spend a few weeks focusing on the number one question that I get asked; “How do I start working with the Microchip PICMicro?” The question is asked from a variety of perspectives and goals, ranging from somebody that just wants to become casually familiar with the […]

Servo motor driver tutorial. This tutorial uses the 12F675 microcontroller to drive a servo. The microcontroller generates the signals to control a standard servo using Timer 0 interrupts (I used a Futaba servo). It does not do anything clever just sets the servo position to predefined positions at one second intervals. A Timer 0 interrupt

I apologise for the tardiness of this article; for the next little while, I will probably have to scale them back to once every two weeks or so. The reason is that I am proof reading the “Galley Proofs” of my new book, “PC PhD”. This book discusses the PC’s hardware and how to develop

In the past two weeks, I discussed the prerequisits for starting your first application and the issues surrounding PICMicro programmers and what to look for. With this background, I am now ready to present what I think is a good first application for somebody learning about the PICMicro. This circuit is not as simple as

here is our our first tutorial on Instructable so be indulgent. This tutorial shows the method of using an Arduino UNO board as a PIC microcontroller programmer. This method has been tested with PIC 18F2550 and 18f4550 but can be used to program the following pic: 18F2420 18F2455 18F2520 18F2550 18F4420 18F4455 18F4520 18F4550 The
