I'm using PicBasic and my project requires taking an analog reading every 100th of a second. Is using TMR0 the best way to do the timing? It looks like the prescaler ratios do not make it possible.

I am looking for input on which BASIC compiler to get to program PICs. I have it narrowed down to PicBASIC Pro, and Celestial Horizons CH Flash Basic. While I know that PicBasic Pro will work with more types of chips, I will really only be using the 16's, so that is not a real is

Has anyone used PicBasic Pro by MeLabs) and MBasic Pro (by Basic Micro)? How do the two compare? I can afford to get one or the other, and obviously want the better of the two products. By better, I mean easier to use, value for the money, more powerful. Please do not bother listing all of the other available Basic compilers. I have compared and contrasted

I need to store a few dozen variable length strings containing GPIB commands for a demo aid using PicBasic Pro in a PIC16F877A. First try was to use Lookup. Works, but I have to wrap a loop around each lookup function. Second try was to use the readcode fun

hello, I have been tinkering with the 16x84 for several years learning a little bit of assembly. However, I find my self wanting to make more involved programs that would be very involved to make in assembly. The most popular alternative appears to be PicBasic Pro but it kills me to have to spend $250 (i'll admit it, i'm cheap). I am pretty familiar wi

I'm about to start on a major program, which I expect to be some 32K in assembly. To save me getting some additional gray hairs I'm sniffing at BASIC for this project. But I need -SPEED- can't afford to loose much of it compared to a well-written assembler program. Can anyone say something about PicBASIC's execution speed and code effici

Has anyone developed software and/or hardware for controlling the absolute position of a stepper motor with a potentiometer? It has to be a stepper, not a servo. I need the stepper to follow the movement of a potentiometer shaft around a 180 degree axis. I work in PicBasic
