I apologize if this has been covered before. I did a search and did not find information that seemed to help.

I have been away from PBP for some time and recently had a reason to work on some old...

I guess I was making it a lot harder than I thought it really was! I did not think I could write directly to the OSCCAL register. Many thanks to everyone. I will try the simple way this afternoon...

Yes, I am aware of the importance of using a crystal. However, in this case, it is not possible. After I relealized what was probably happening I started programming the 509 without first erasing it....

I've been searching through the various threads that address the oscillator calibration for this chip and I'm a bit confused. I've never used this chip before and I think I may have wiped out the...

Excuse the slightly off topic question but ... Has anyone used any of these chips? I'm working on a 18F2321 project that uses this chip. The project works fine but my problem is on the PC that we...

Anyone written the code to set up one of these DDS chips? I'm only looking for the proper sequence to set up the serial mode. I've tried what is shown in the data sheets without any luck.

MCLR tied high through 10K resistor - also tried 4.7K.
Different combinations of the @ device tried.
Been going through the data sheets all morning.

After all that I did figure out how to make...

Is anyone using the 16F716 ? I'm having trouble getting one to start up. A new project design uses one of these and it new to me. I have one on my proto board and it will not 'spin up'. Vdd and Vss...

Some time back I was wondering if anyone had used the ICD in MCSP. I never have been able to get it to work as advertised. At the time I couldn't spend time trying it again. I just spent about an...

I believe that the ICD uses the hardware UART of the target PIC to communicate with MCSP. My guess is that you can't do both - run the ICD AND use the hardware UART under your program control. The...

Thanks Bruce and Robert. Since I posted the original post I have purchased the full MCSP package but I have not tried the ICD method again. I had assumed that what Bruce said was the correct method...

After I made the initial post to this thread I continued my "research". I now understand that the MCSP ICD and the Microchip ICD are two completely different animals. But recent posts still have me...

Has anyone used the 16F91x (PICs with LCD drivers)? I will be using a 4 digit LCD (type VIM-404) in a project. This is not a "smart" display. It is intended to be driven from the PIC's seg and com...

I am about to begin a project using a 16F914. My ME Labs programmer supports this chip but my Picbasic Pro compiler does not. I'm using version 2.43 and was wondering if the newest version supports...

I've been using a Warp13 for several years and need to change to an in circuit programmer. Can anyone pass along their recommendations for a good, cheap, programmer that will work with PicBasic Pro...

I'm a bit confused about using the ICD feature of the PICs that support ICD. I have managed for years using the serial DEBUG command to work out my bugs but have recently become interested in the ICD...
