@ScaleRobotics thanks for the links.. i chose this project because i want to learn about PIC for making automated robots like line followers and AUVs.. i have been making manual ones for a while now.. and also i want to show something good at the end of my semester. and i chose 16F877A coz its been used before for a MPPT device though i am not sure how that project ended up.. :P

Charlie i am sorry i dint realize its a BASIC forum .. but i could not find any forum for just C either.. is there one??
