I forgot to order the lead duh so now I've got a connector I've got to make a lead up for but no idea what type of connector it is or where to get the plugs to plug into it (or ready made leads)...

I searched for many combinations of things, but stupidly it never occured to me to search for that the way you wrote it. One of my problems at the moment is not being able to think of the obvious...

I'm sure you'll have heard this before, but here goes anyway.
I'm trying to get back into pic programming 2 yrs after having brain surgery and I can do simple things like program lcd displays and so...

Thanks for that just what I needed

No special pins needed, it's all going to be normal i/o pins

Basically a fancy switch with temp sensing to control the switching

I've decided to allow for...

I'm trying to get back into programming and making a board up, but after having brain surgery it's very hard to remember certain things such as the simplest items.


Can anyone tell me what would...

Maybe I didn't explain it good enough, or maybe I just don't understand what you mean.

a hypothetical scenario - Think of a pic processor with a variable resistor attached, at 4 stages in the...

I'm thinking about starting a project that would basically mean the PIC having to learn.

Ill explain in the simplest analagies I can think of.

Picture a fuel guage, it works by having a...

IF I have a program I've written in picbasic pro, it comiled ok and end up with a hex code.

How do I know how much code space in the pic it will take?

Alain

You were right as always. I hadn't the board configured properly.

I totally forgot about the row of jumpers to set the pins pull-up or pull-down, I had it set wrong.

Thank you

Sorry Alain, I wasn't too clear on what I meant.

The easypic board HAS pullup resistors on those ports.

When i run the program, the lcd sits there with just the * displaying even when no button...

I thought that might be the problem, but where would I put
high portA.0

If I put it before the mainloop it displays the temperature all the time,
if I put it at the end of mainloop then it...

I've been playing with this all day today and it's a great piece of code.
I used this as I have an easypic 6*

I have one problem/question that perhaps someone could answer please

When I...

Got it working at last :)
Thanks for all the help everyone.

I think the problem I had was I was trying to overwrite the inc files without realising.

I now have @ __config _CONFIG1, _HS_OSC &...

Sorry I forgot totally about that, PM would not work at all,because I have an X64 system

For some reason @ __config _CONFIG1, _HS_OSC & _WDT_ON & _MCLRE_ON & _LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF will not work

after much more reading I came up with the following, but it still doesn't do anything.
I tested the board and pic by using the blinking led program and it works, and then modified that to...

Hi All,
I put myself down as a newbie even though I played with Pic's over a year ago.
The problem I have stems from I had a severe brain injury and had to undergo surgery, and since then I have...

Thanks :)
although I've decided to give up totally on trying to figure out pic chips, see my question where I asked the simple query about how you connect one to an icd2

Never mind, i worked it out
I THINK... tough if I got it wrong I'll just give up and bin the whole pic chip thing.
although if someone had actually answered instead of suggesting things I've...

Hmm so it's back to the manual again! (all 112 pages)
The reason I asked what to everyone here was a really simple question is it's easier to digest something from being told it than reading...

Anyone able to tell me how a USART works?
I want to decode a 1khz data stream and been told that using a pic with usart would probably be best, using synchronous serial reception mode to handle the...

Read those thanks. actually spent the last couple of days trying to digest them, but they arent a lot of help really
All i reallly need to know is in simple terms the differences between the 2...
