    Nokia Lcd

    Hi Skimask,

    I would like to know where you are getting your Nokia color LCD from?

    Thanks!

    So many bootloader, so many solution...

    You can use

    DEFINE LOADER_USED 1
    OR
    DEFINE RESET_ORG 0h (for PIC 18F)

    (both are in the manual)


    Then I suggest to have a look at my personal favorites:
  3. Pic18fxx31

    Did you consider using PIC18F2431/4431? They have a built-in motion feedback module that includes a quadrature encoder interface and noise filters. Works great!

    Bill,

    You can use LCD fonts, not that hard to find I think. Then just put a green background for the text. Very easy to do with MS Word.

    Picaxe

    Marty,

    I STRONGLY suggest you to go with Picaxe chips. Much easier to start with and most of what you will learn will be usefull if you later want to 'upgrade' to picbasic. I DID IT and enjoyed...

    Hi,


    I've got some strange behavior from Winpic too. Actually, I'm using both winpic and winpic 800 (www.winpic800.com) depending of which PIC I'm programming. This may sound strange but I think...

    Found something strange (BUG???)

    Hi,

    I'm having strange result using DIV32 after constants multiplication, but changing both to variables give correct result.

    Here is the example code:

    C2 con 200

    To use the internal oscillator and 4x PLL w/4620/2620 for 32 Mhz you need those defines:

    DEFINE OSC 32
    OSCCON = %11110000 '8 Mhz, internal osc
    OSCTUNE = %11000000 '4x PLL enabled...

    Try adding TRISB=%00000000 to set all PORTB pins as outputs.
    You can also simply write TRISB = 0.
    (This goes on the beginning of your program.)

    My 2 cents

    You may want to have a look at US Digital website, to find appropriate encoders.

    I would also suggest you to use PIC18FXX31 family. They have built-in quadrature encoder interface module with...

    What about "label"

    I've read the manual a little more and found that "If the optional Label is included, this label will be jumped to if an acknowledge is not received from the IC2 device."

    Multiple PIC talking to same I2C device

    I want to implement a circuit where 2 microcontrollers (PIC18F4620 and PIC18F4431) will exchange values with an I2C EEPROM device (24LC32).

    18F4620 will both read an write stored values, while...

    Sadly, I can't say the same for everyone.

    Alain,

    I'm sorry that you had such poor english teachers.

    "DO" est simplement le verbe faire.

    It's also used several ways. The difference between "I enjoy" and "I do enjoy" is subtle. The...

    I'm pretty sure you can find some example of that. Try searching using keyword ENCODER not decoder. Also it's not ABC, it's A B and Index.

    "define osc 8" Is NOT changing oscillator frequency, It's just telling PBP at which frequency the oscillator is running. And most important, all defines must be in UPPERCASE when using PBP....
