A discussion group for the PICMicro microcontroller. Also called the Microchip PIC, this list is dedicated to the use and abuse of this fine, simple, microcontroller. Close to topic posts are welcome, ie. general electronics.

Hi all
I planned to improve my cicuit free of noise.
For what we have to do the unused pins in 16F877.
Need to connect directly to ground or through an resistor or any other
way?
Thx
Ramesh

If you know for sure they are not going to be used (port pins), make them
outputs. Otherwise unused pins should be pulled to V+ through resistors
around 10k. If you just ground them, an inadvertant command sending them
high will damage the pic.

jUST configure these pins like outputs! >From: R Ramesh <> >Reply-To: >To: >Subject: [piclist] where to connect the unused pins 16f877 to avoid the >noise >Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2003 05:22:46 -0700 (PDT) > >Hi all >I planned to improve my cicuit free of noise. >For what we have to do the unused pins in 16F877. > Need to connect directly to ground or through an resistor or any other >way? > >Thx >Ramesh > >--------------------------------- > MSN Messenger: instale grátis e converse com seus amigos. http://messenger.msn.com.br |
