Hi all,
on 16F84A this code works fine.
-----------------------------------------
v1 var byte
main:
pot portb.0,255,v1 ' connect an CDS (fotoresistor)
if v1 < 230 then led
goto main
led:
high portd.1
pause 500
low portd.1
pause 500
goto main
---------------------------------------
on 16F877A no works!!
why?
thx

Chip_1, I beleive the resistance of CDS Photoresistors are quite high as I remember. If the resistance you are encountering is much more than say 50k Ohms then the pot command will not work. You could possibly use the RCTIME command instead with and appropriate capacitor.....

Or using the internal analog to digital converter with a op-amp[ buffer between CDS and the PIC.
Be sure you place a 0.1 uF capacitor close to your PIC.
Is anything else work with this PIC?
