Hi all,
I've been reading this forum for a few hours now. It looks good. got a few questions though.
I've never used pics or anything before, but i want to get into them (the 16f826), i've designed a circuit (really simple blinking led), and now want to build it, but my questions are:
My Programmer: http://www.adteknik.se/english/mp35ser.htm
Only says it does PIC16F628 -- maplins only has PIC16F628A will this be ok???
I'm still not sure if the chips run from AC or DC??? If DC, what is the best way to make them run from a 9v battery? (i've read they need 5v) how do you make the 9v down to 5v
I've tried using "@ __config _INTRC_OSC_NOCLKOUT..." code, but it wouldnt complie with this, so can i just set the tick box on my programmer to "int RC 1/0" or "int RC0" to make it use the internal oscillator?
Thanks so much everyone!
Regards,
