I'm using a PIC16F628 to build a serial DC motor driver. I thought of using the UART port to wake the PIC when a new command comes in. What are the considerations for using the UART ? Should I use a interrupt or just check the port in a tight loop ? If I want to preserve powe

Hi Am experimenting with a PIC16F628 here and would like put the processor in Sleep Mode and then wake it up when a character is received in the UART. Problem is that SLEEP seems to shut down the OSC and thus the Baudrate Generator is not running to get the character. Read

I have a program in my 16F88 that reads data from a GPS (through the hardware UART), stores it in RAM, parses it, and then writes certain items to an external EEPROM. What I've discovered, though, is that I have to turn off continuous receive (CREN=0) before I do my processing ro

Hello - I am looking for a 16F873A bootloader that uses the built-in serial port (and ideally without WDT). Shane Tolmie's looks most promising to me but his site doesn't have a 20Mhz version. Apparently the 87xA versions use a slightly different algorithm for self-programming so I a
