I have spent the past six months working on my senior project. The senior project is a requirement for graduation at The California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo. A large part of my senior project was using a microcontroller. Specifically, I used a PIC made by Microchip - PIC16C74A. The project involved: using Timer 2, setting up the A/D ( analog to digital ) converter, serial line transmission, external interrupts, and port setup. I have put my code on the web in order to make it easier for other people to learn how to use a PIC. You need Adobe Acrobat Reader in order to view the documents. You can download the reader for free at Adobe's Home Page.
I also recommend a visit to Dr. Depiero's web page. He has many examples of microchip assembly, and he has some examples of the visual basic code. He also has a schematic for how to setup the microcontroller. He is an electrical engineering professor at The California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo. http://www.ee.calpoly.edu/~fdepiero |
