Lots of external PIC Links

Key words to help you search the table.

  • Projects: project descriptions, enough to reproduce the project, not just nice pictures
  • Tutorial: a tutorial or how to
  • Links: a link to more links
  • Info: Useful information that does not rise to a tutorial, misc. tips.
  • PICIntro: Intro material
  • Asm: for assembler programs
  • Clang: for C programs
  • Forum: for a forum, mail list and their ilk
  • WebRing: for a Web Ring.

So, for example, if you are looking for projects then search on Projects.

  • PIC

Stepbots

A stepbot is a three wheeled robot using stepper motors.

  • Project
  • Pic
An Anemometer Circuit Measure wind speed. This has no moving parts, works by measuring cooling of a “hot” transistor. Fairly low parts count.
  • Project
  • PIC
Bench Power Supply Uses a PIC for control and to measure voltage and current. Not simple but nice.
  • Project
  • PIC
IR Remote Signal Analyzer Pretty big PIC project, but cool. Know what your IR remote is sending. IR receivers are a pretty common salvage component
  • Project
  • Tutorial
  • PIC
IR Receiver for Sony Remotes Simpler project than IR Remote Signal Analyzer which may be the better project
  • Project
  • PIC
PIC diode tester Nice simple project. Good Starting project. Software is assembler.
  • Project
  • PIC
PIC IR Decoders Decodes IR transmissions, has its own 4 digit display. Software is assembler.
  • Project
  • PIC
IR Proximity Detector Project More fun with IR
  • Robotics
  • Links
  • PIC
INDEX OF PROJECTS for Robots Not entire robots but basic components for them. Some are PIC based.
  • Project
  • PIC
IR Robot Controller control of a robot. Software is assembler.
  • PICIntro
  • Tutorial
  • PIC
Your first PICMicro Project Introduction to PIC processors using assembler. Even if you are using another language this is a good introduction.
  • Tutorial
  • PICIntro
  • PIC
Beginning Embedded Electronics This is not actually a PIC tutorial but lots of the material applies. This link is to the first of 10 + sections.
  • Kit
  • PIC
Fire-Stick This is an under $20. kit for long range IR communications. Uses some special parts so kit is probably a good idea.
  • Project
  • PIC
How to build a Serial Voltmeter using the PIC16C71 Software in PIC basic, you could rewrite in a different language, or use a different chip. Voltmeter talks to a PC. They may have a kit, you may do not need it.
  • Tutorial
  • Links

WinPicProg PIC Tutorial Good introduction. Software is assembler. A series of simple projects. Good introduction to simple interface circuits. You might want to use a different programmer
  • Project
  • PIC
Nix's PIC based sonar system This is a simple range detection system, perhaps for a robot. Directions are a bit brief.
  • Project
  • PIC
A Surprisingly Accurate Digital LC Meter L is inductance ( what a coil of wire has. C is capacitance, what a capacitor has ). Very useful to identify unmarked parts.
  • Project
  • PIC
Autorange Capacitance Meter Measure the value of a capacitance ( the stuff in a capacitor ). Auto ranging means the device switches itself between low and high measurement ranges.
  • CLang
  • PIC
C sample code for PIC micros and Hi-Tech C From Microchip. Lots of example programs in C: note that different versions of C can be quite different, esp. in their included libraries.
  • CLang
  • PIC
BoostC Compiler Example Code Lots of example programs in C: note that different versions of C can be quite different, esp. in their included libraries.
