Embedded C Programming For PIC Chips

C Programming Using CCS Compiler For PIC Microcontrollers

Here is a link for a good tutorial on programming PIC microcontroller in C.

Motor Control using Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM)


In this program, a jumper on Port B directly selects the PWM output. PWM output is only present if a jumper to ground is present on one of the least significant 3 bits of port B.



The program demonstrates the use of control registers to effect PWM operation.  One thing to notice is the fact that the program waits for a change on the input pins before selecting a new pulse-width duty cycle and reloading CCPR1.

Ultra-Precise, Current-Sense Amplifier

  The INAx290 is an ultra-precise, current-sense amplifier that can measure voltage drops across shunt resistors over a wide common-mode ran...
