PWM on PIC16F88

[peterdeco1]

Hi Steve. I copied your code exactly and it still outputs only on RB0. I suspect my programmer and/or software is the problem. There is an option "CCP1 on RB3" that works on the 16F818 but the option is "grayed out" when I program the 16F88. I guess it will not allow the use of RB3. I think it's time to get the latest hardware/software from Microchip. Thank you for your help.

[peterdeco1]

That was it. My software was forcing CCP1 onto RB0, while MPLAB software shows "CCP1 ON RB3". Thanks Everybody.

peterdeco1,

What programmer software and hardware are you using that causes the problem? We would all like to know. We want to avoid running in to the same difficulties.

hi guys can any one help with assembly code for dimming an led using the pic16f88. ihave read the datasheet but i dont seem to underatand it i have come with code but it doesnt work can anybody tell me whats wrong with my code.


list p=16f88

I'll bet at least on the configuration fuses settings... AND... is there any specific reason why you want to run your PIC @ 32KHz?

i didn't did the calc, but i feel your current setting doesn't work anyways...

try the following

        list p=16f88
        INCLUDE "p16f88.inc"

        ;       Program Configuration Register 1
        __CONFIG    _CONFIG1, _CP_OFF & _CCP1_RB0 & _DEBUG_OFF & _WRT_PROTECT_OFF & _CPD_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _BODEN_OFF & _MCLR_OFF & _PWRTE_OFF & _WDT_OFF & _INTRC_IO
        
        ;       Program Configuration Register 2
        __CONFIG    _CONFIG2, _IESO_OFF & _FCMEN_OFF

        errorlevel -302         ; disable ' ensure .. bank pouet pouet' warning message

        BANKSEL OSCCON
        MOVLW   B'01100000'
        MOVWF   OSCCON          ; 4 MHz INT CLOCK MODE
        BTFSS   OSCCON,IOFS     ; wait 'till int osc is stable 
        GOTO    $-1
        
        BANKSEL PORTB           
        CLRF PORTB              ; Clear all 
        CLRF PORTA              ; outputs
        
        BANKSEL TRISA
        CLRF TRISA              ; all pins set to output
        CLRF TRISB              ;

        BANKSEL ANSEL
        CLRF ANSEL              ; Disable all ADCs
        
                ;
                ;       PWM Setup
                ;       ---------
        BANKSEL PR2
        movlw .249              ; ~250Hz PWM FREQUENCY
        movwf PR2

        BANKSEL T2CON
        movlw b'00000111'       ; prescaler 1:16, Timer2=on
        movwf T2CON

        BANKSEL CCP1CON
        movlw b'00001100'       ; pwm mode
        movwf CCP1CON

Start
        BANKSEL CCPR1L
        movlw .250
        movwf CCPR1L            ; set duty cycle to ~max, 100%
        
Loop1   ;   ((10+bananas) *250) uSec delay loop
        ;   to provide slower fading effect
        goto $+1    
        goto $+1        
        goto $+1
        goto $+1
        goto $+1
        DECFSZ  W,F
        GOTO    Loop1
       
        decfsz CCPR1L,F         ; dimming led by varying the duty cycle
        goto Loop1
        goto Start
        end

Sorry, ASM is really not my cup of tea So i'll not be surprised if some comes with a better solution, or with some constructive comments on the above (apart that i should care a little bit more about the bank switching... i feel there's a few useless BANKSEL here and there... that's what happen when you're lazy )

Please, next time, try to not double, triple post the same question on various forum section.

hey thanks alot ,it works. i have just tested it.can you please tell me what $+1 means so that i can change the code to control a motor.if you can send me sample assembly code on how to use the analogue to digital converter on the pic16f88. code that can display a binary values on leds of a varying voltage signal. your help would be highly appreciated

[mister_e]

$+1 mean 'from here to the next instruction' this avoid to use labels. The GOTO $+1 just jump to the next instruction. a single goto use 2 instruction cycle.

$-1 jump to the previous instruction.

You can also change the 1 to whatever else amount of line... but this could make your code harder to read.
<hr>
i'll look at that later today for the other code.

Hey! you're such a lucky guy to have ASM support on a PICBASIC forum.
