Discussion Groups | Piclist | Re: [fpga-cpu] Xilinx bitgen problem

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!

Maybe what I'm going to said is stupid, but "the clk has no source"....
What clk is that???
Are you using the fpga external clock???
If you are not, I think you my try it, by using pin 13.
That's what I think... sorry if it's dumb... hehe ;P
Thanks for listening...

Jorge, Guilherme

Re: Re: R/C Receiver Interface - Malcolm - Jan 28 15:19:00 2005


Not really sure what the original requirement is as I've just joined
this group, but if it's to connect a PIC to a receiver so you can get
the PIC to perform a function on receipt of a signal from the
transmitter (like the speed of a motor or turn on some light) then there
are loads of CCts and code available on the web. If on the other hand
the object is to read the PPM signals from the transmitter for use as a
flight sim interface, then again there are lots of examples of how to do
this on several web sites (including my own electronics site
www.rc-electronics.net )

My experience is that each channel signal is a pulse with a width of
between 1ms and 2.0ms, with 1.5ms being the centre point on the servo
travel. Thus with a 6 channel TX you have a train of six pulses between
1 and 2 ms with a sync puls at the end of the frame. (at least this is
the case with Futaba and JR transmitters). These pulses are repeated in
a 20ms time frame. With this sort of timing you can use the internal
oscillator in most PICs if you want to read the signals in a project
such as an RC switch. However if you are interfacing with a PC you need
the precision of an external crystal or resonator to maintain the data
stream to the PC
