Hi, Joe

I do think this file means ...

Somebody already did the job ...

I want to use the ADC, HWPWM1 and 2, and some digital only I/O's

and the dedicated library is here ...

Most peripherals on the 16F1827 are the same as previous parts, but you will need to
spend some time going through the 1827 data sheet to find out which ones are the same,
and which ones have changed.

Definitely have a look at the APFCON0 & APFCON1 registers.

Also, check your PI14EEXT.BAS to make sure it has APFCON0 VAR BYTE EXT and not
APFCON VAR BYTE EXT.

There should also be these definitions in the PI14EEXT.BAS file;

MDCON  VAR BYTE EXT
MDSRC  VAR BYTE EXT
MDCARH VAR BYTE EXT
MDCARL VAR BYTE EXT

If these aren't in there, just add them.

Then you can do cool stuff like this with the new Data Signal Modulator....

The output of your 40kHz IR module spits out serial data you send with HSEROUT.

Hello Bruce,

I am not all that familiar with this chip yet. How is it different than the 16F877A using PWM1 at 38.8Khz and sending serial data out on say RB4 data out? The IR LED would then be placed between PWM1 out and RB4 to modulate the data stream.

Just wondering if the 1827 has a nifty way of doing it... Do you have a schematic of how the IR led connects to the I/O, using the code you attached?

Best Regards,
Nick

Neither am I. That's the 1st bit of code I've compiled or tested on this one.

How is it different than the 16F877A using PWM1 at 38.8Khz and sending serial data out on say RB4 data out?

Quite a lot. With the 16F1827 you only need a single pin. Here's a schematic;
RB3 ----/\/\/\-----|>|---GND.

Or you could use an NPN transistor if you need more range. Look at the logic picture below.

The top signal is the modulated data output from RB3 MODOUT. The lower signal is
the USART TX output.

Here's a copy of the previous code with better explanations, and both the USART TX out,
and PWM output pins disabled.

' MODOUT, RB3, outputs whatever you send with HSEROUT as a 40kHz
' modulated data stream.

  ' The PWM output signal, on CCP1 pin, which is set to RB0 with APFCON0=1
  ' has been disabled by setting MDCARL.7
  ' So even with the hardware USART outputting data, and PWM on, thier output pins
  ' are disabled. PWM and the serial data output from the USART are "mixed" internally
  ' by the Data Signal Modulator.

  MDCON = %11100000    ' modulator, MODOUT pin, slew rate limiting enabled
  MDSRC = %10001010    ' USART TX is modulation source, TX output "pin" disabled
  MDCARH = %00000000   ' carrier OFF during idle periods

Main:
  HSEROUT [$55]        ' sends USART data out modulated at 40kHz
  PAUSE 500
  GOTO Main
  END

Even with PWM on, and the USART sending data, there is no PWM output on the CCP1 pin
or data output on the USART TX pin. Both signals are mixed internally by the DSM,
and output only on RB3 or MODOUT.

I only had the USART TX pin output enabled to capture the logic analyzer traces below to
show the MODOUT signal compared to the USART TX output signal.

Hello Bruce,

I tried to compile your code, it had many errors. I have PBP 2.60, using PB assembler (not MASM). I went through the PI14EEXT.BAS and made the changes you advised. I have 1 error left "CCPTMRS". This does not exist in the PI14EEXT.BAS, only CCPTMRS0 and CCPTMRS1.

Which of these did you intend?

thanks!
Nick

[Bruce]

Hi Nick,

Add CCPTMRS to your PI14EEXT.BAS file. There were several register definitions missing.

[Macgman2000]

Hello Bruce,

I made the changes, still nothing. I am getting a bunch of errors saying that the 16F1827.inc could not be found. It is giving me a BUNCH of errors. Errors for symbol not previously defined portA, PortB, portC...etc.

I found the 16F1827.inc within the PBP directory, opened it up and it says not to use PB assembler, but rather MPASM. So I selected MPASM as my assembler, still I am getting a ton of errors using MPASM. I have never seen this many errors ever...wow.
