Two DIY micro-controller based USB connected electronic units which along with the Texas Instruments Analog System Lab Starter kit and a laptop permit you to conduct analog experiments anywhere. It would be wonderful if senior students and laboratory supervisors built these units so that they could be used in their laboratories by freshers. Aj-SigGen-PS …
This unit provides 4 autonomous MIDI inputs and 1 MIDI output. Note this is a ‘proper’ MIDI Merger – all 4 MIDI inputs can be used at the same time, unlike other ‘designs’. The unit also provides an indication of the channel number being played, and has shown itself to be capable of expansion into …

Original Assignment Do not erase this section! Your assignment is to create code that will allow the PIC32 to read and write data to a FAT32 SD card. The SD card should be able to be read by a PC after data has been written on it by the PIC32. Create functions so that it …

Methods: Use a TTL HI output for the RS232 GND: Steve Walz of armory.com says “Use a TTL HI output for the RS232 *GROUND*!! Then you get +/-5VDC levels to fake out the RS232. When TTL-GND goes HI, then a TTL-XMT LO looks like -5VDC and a “mark”. Even sign problems go away in hardware! When TTL-GND …
This post provides the comparator code for PIC12F675 microcontroller. As we know, PIC12F675 microcontroller has one built in op-amp, which can be used as comparator. This code is written in C language using MPLAB with HI-TECH C compiler. You can download this code from the ‘Downloads‘ section at the bottom of this page. It is assumed that …

Abstract of that project: Using UART port we can establish serial communication between any devices. Here in my project Serial communication with Pic 16f877 using UART I will show you how easily we establish communication between two devices. In my project we know the pin no 25,26 in PIC16F877 are use as UART. The pin …
Most of the ideas in this chapter can be found on the pages of this website, but just in case you want to go over the capabilities of the ‘508A, we have brought them together. Quite often when you are programming, the first thing you will run out of is output lines. Many projects need …
Each of the output lines of a ‘508A microcontroller can deliver a maximum of 25mA. What does this mean? It means any device connected to the line must take 25mA or less. If it takes more than 25mA a buffer transistor (also called an amplifying transistor) must be used and this will be discussed in a …

Features in-circuit programmer programs flash PICmicro’s supports a rapid cycle of code/program/test prototype programmer takes power from the target circuit serial interface serial passthrough to the target Foremost Wisp628 is an in-circuit programmer. The programmer is connected to a few pins of the target PICmicro, which is programmed while it remains in the circuit. The target circuit must be compatible with the programmer …
The mikroC PRO for PIC provides a library for communication with the Microchip’s Port Expander MCP23S17 via SPI interface. Connections of the PIC compliant MCU and MCP23S17 is given on the schematic at the bottom of this page. Important : The library uses the SPI module for communication. User must initialize the appropriate SPI module before …
