LED crazy

[HenrikOlsson]

Hi,
There's lots of ways to acomplish what you want, most of them involve some kind of PWM generating. Generating that PWM can be done with PBP's PWM command for a software-only-aproach or by the PICs hardware CCP module.

If dimming that LED up and down is all you want then something quick and dirty like this might do the trick:

TRISB.7=0     'Set PortB.7 to output, connect LED here.
DutyCycle VAR byte

Start:
For DutyCycle = 0 to 255
 PWM PortB.7, DutyCycle, 10
Next

For DutyCycle = 255 to 0 Step -1
 PWM PortB.7, DutyCycle, 10
Next

Goto Start

That's one way...also have a look at the HPWM command and search this forum for Darrel Taylors software PWM routines.

/Henrik.

Thanks HenrikOlsson
Thats what I was looking for.
Very nice of you to help me.
Now I can take this code you made
and mess with it.
You know like add more leds and mess with
the fade time.
Thanks again!
