OK. First thing, for reasonable reliability, always use the 'minimum' figure in the data sheet. Otherwise you will get the odd chip that gives problems well before the 'typical' figure.
It is 'erase ...

PostForum: General CCS C Discussion   Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2007 11:48 pm   Subject: Max EEPROM erase cycles using write/read_eeprom()
Hi

I know for most PIC 18s that the maximum number of writes to the EEPROM is around 1,000,000.

What I am wondering is, is this per byte? Ie, if there are 1024 bytes in the EEPROM, can I write e ...

I tried it on an 18F452 with PCH vs. 4.047, on a PicDem2-Plus board and
it didn't work. The data sheet shows the pin drivers for the UART
are controlled by SPEN, not TXEN. (There's a block diagr ...

If you don't specify C6 for Xmit the compiler will use a software UART. When you say you cannot use the PIN_C6 as an output pin, do you mean the compiler generates an error, or the pin is stuck high ...

Alas... I had sent the previous message while I was at work so unable to test it until now.

Unfortunately, when I disable the xmit pin, I still cannot use the PIN_C6 as an output pin.

Thank you!!!!! I didn't realise I could manually turn of the xmit. You have saved my day! Smile

Hi

I am using a hardware UART for receiving data. The UART does not need to send data. So technically I only need the RCV pin (PIN_C7), not the XMIT pin (PIN_C6).

The spec I'm working with requi ...

Thank you guys, these posts really educated me!

Could someone just explain, how do you set the prescaler to /16 vs /64 within CCS?

Thanks

Hi

I'm trying to calculate the minimum Fosc speed for an application.

The application is MIDI. It transfers at 31250 bps. Each midi 'symbol' consists of 8 bits of data with a start and stop bit ...

Thank you, ttelhmah. This is the reassurance that I needed.

For some reason I thought that I couldnt use the UART for both bootloader and other comms.. but now it seems ok - thanks!

PostForum: General CCS C Discussion   Posted: Fri Jul 20, 2007 10:09 pm   Subject: Problem with #INT_EXT for UART
Hi

I am using a bootloader that requires the hardware UART to function. So I need to use a software UART for communications. I do this with INT_EXT.

why not just use A0 & A1 as Analog as the others as digital and you don't have to switch from analog to digital and back again?
The problem is I am using a PCB that has already been implemented b ...

Well, they wouldn't need to be analog and digital simultaneously. The code I'm thinking of would be something like:


setup_adc_ports(ALL_ANALOG);
delay_ms(X); //allow the ADC to s ...

Hi

I'm using an 18F2525 with 12 ADC ports. In the datasheet it says:

"each port pin associated with the A/D converter can be configured as an analog input, or as a digital I/O."
