Interfacing Temperature Sensor with Microchip PIC16F876A

The tutorial aims at providing the necessary information for interfacing an analog type temperature sensor with a Microchip PIC Microcontroller. PIC (Peripheral Interface Controllers) was introduced in 1985. The PIC16F876A has 8K of Flash Program Memory, 368 bytes of Data Memory (RAM) and many other attractive features. Some features are ADC, USART, and 14 Interrupts …

How to work with inbuilt ADC Module of PIC18F4550

A microcontroller, a digital device, can read, execute and transmit only digital signals. On the contrary, the outputs of the most of the transducers are analog in nature. Thus it is hard to interface these transducers directly with controllers. Analog-to-digital convertor (ADC) ICs are one way to make the analog input compatible with the microcontroller. Using …

Electrical Subsystem Schematics Using Pic

The goal of the electrical design was to streamline an automatic shift control while keeping manual user input in a fast, user-friendly way. The electrical design was driven by the complexity required by the mechanical system. The system takes in rider input in the form of a throttle position sensor, shift pushbuttons, and mode selector. …
