are there any pic's available that would replace the 16F84A pin for pin wit the a/d converter?

i am currently using a velleman programmer board, reason being it caught my eye and thats how i started to get in to programming Pic.

just looked at that pickit 2 only £25 over here in uk.
might...

i just looked on the data sheet for the 16f627, i thought AN1, AN2 etc were A-D inputs, i take it there just comparitors.

i cant use a 16F88 as my programmer wont accept it.

The 16F827 may be...

what would be the best PIC to use for running an LCD display in 4bit mode, it also needs to be able to measure two temperatures and the supply voltage of 12V before the reg.

i was thinking...

cheers m8,
i like the look of Pic bsic more as i find it easier to understand, so will be continuing in this language.

cheers mister e, just found out it was a problem with my code as i am fairly new to it, but i went over my circuit with a fine tooth comb, litteraly,
using a magnifying glass i was able to just...

cheers malcom, thats now worked, downloaded the hex on to my PIC.
But still having problems, only showing line 1 and 3 full of solid blocks.

its definatley highlighted as the cursor is flashing,
but still shows(no .asm file)

so far so good untill i select quick build.
it says (no.asm file)
do i have to upload the file to it somehow?
if i click open it will only let me load an .mcp file

do you mean MPLAB IDE 7.60? as i have just downloaded.
what do you mean by quick build?

i have tried many files including those of nigels but i still have problems converting to a HEX file.

why is it that when i copy any of these text files and try to convert it in to a hex file it always shows up with lots of errors, about 60 errors each time.

therefore i can not copy any of these...

the crystal seems to be timing as i have checked on an oscilloscope

how is pic basic pro different from what i am doing?
and is it easier to learn?

the schematic is in the pic below, the only difference in my circuit is that i am using a 4 MHZ crystal instead of 32khz, i have compensated for this in my code, correct me if i am wrong.

can some...

cheers bud, couldyou point me in the right direction for this software, poss a download link.

yup, pin 5 is deffo connected to ground, its on the back of the lcd,
one question i must ask is: should the crystal be making a square wave?
(im running a 4 MHZ with 2x33pf caps) the signal...

code in attatchment:

i have a 4x20 line lcd display with a program to say hello world.

when the program is run it just shows up as a small block in the top left corner

when the capacitors each side of the crystal...

thanx guys, sorted now.

hi im new to both this site and PIC micro controllers.

i like to learn the program and solve things myself, but im at the point of nearly pulling my hair out. i require some help.

i have...
