Hi group, I recently placed a DS1307 RTC on a breadboard and wired it to a PIC16F877 and started reading data. I was displaying this data on a PC through serial, via VB. Every once in a while (couple of minutes) I would read a mess for the date and time, but ONLY for

Hi?friends/seniors ? HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! ? Well,? this?new year i would like to make some major ?changes ....No?CHANGE No FUTURE ...haha ...just kidding ....actually till now i was working with PIC ..n i think ( just i think!..lol) i have quite good hold on PIC's ......but but i dont knw much abt DSP's..but? i REALLY want to?work on DSP's ..so here goes my questions ..... 1. As far as i knw ,...

Hi all, I'm fairly new to PIC microcontrollers and have been experimenting for the last month or so with a PIC16F877. I have an extensive background in PLC (ladder logic) and VB programming. Curious, what is the difference in a PLC and a PIC, seems the memory

Has anyone tried the Dallas Semiconductor DS275 Transceiver in place of a MAX232? Seems simpler to use and needs no support capacitors. Whats your experience; liked it - hated it? Any enlightenment will be appreciated. TIA Vic ______________________

First of all, thanks a lot for everyone's kindness in guiding me on my doubts before this. Would like to ask regarding the following matter: Firstly, the voltage output of my solar panel varies from 4V to 10V (Will not exceed 10V). I intend to shut the PIC down if the output

Would like to ask if you guys mind giving me an idea on what are the instructions that I can "play" with if I intend to perform some comparison in my programme. Then, I will try to sort out how to make use of them? But of course it would be great if you don't mind giving

Hi All, Does anyoone have experience with this BASIC programmer. Not that I need BASIC but this compiler seems pretty good and the included SPLICE simulator is pretty neat as well. I am still trying to find the right compiler and am looking at either CCS

Hi everyone, I'm still quite new to micros, and am doing a project on the PIC18F452. I am experiencing some troubles with ADC conversion, and think that it is a simple solution, but I'm not sure what it is. I tried to provide all the pertienent info, and e

Hi everyone, I'm pretty new to PICS, but will do my best to characterize my problem and provide as much pertinent info as possible. I perplexed as to what is going on with my PIC. I am using an 18f452 on a PICDEM 2 Plus board, and my own PCB that I milled.
