I just started to study with CCS..I know .asm code.I wanna a book to learn CCS. CCS manual is missing sample code and examples. For example i didnt configure input PortA..Can u help

Three things -

First, wrong forum, this should probably be in the "General" forum. This one is for questions about the ICD hardware and programmers (ICD, Mach-X etc).

Second, when you installed CCS there are two directories full of example code. "samples" and "drivers".

Third, there is some example code in the manual (ie the PDF version available for download from [url]www.ccsinfo.com\picc[/url]. Navigate to the downloads section. But the majority of the code is installed with the compiler.

A "borrowed" copy of the compiler may not have all the example code...

Do you know C? Maybe you need a book on that? CCS is a C compiler. What you need to know is C and the PIC. Once you know those, it is just a matter of browsing through the manual to see what "built in" are available. So I would recommend reading the datasheet of the PIC and understand what it can do and then browse the manual of the compiler and then take a look at the samples in the samples directory. If you can program the PIC in asm and know C, then you shouldn't have any problems.

By the way, look for "set_tris_a()" in the manual...

thnks for them..and im sorry.
I know C and pic assembler.But i wanna learn CCS...
thnx set_tris ..But i cant know exactly..
Maybe i must find a book about CCS..
Thanks again

Try Embedded C Programming and the Microchip PIC by Barnett, Cox and O'cull.

Great starter with CD rom and examples all in CCS.

Cheers

I have a "PICmicro MCU C - An introduction to programming the Microchip PIC in CCS C" by Nigel Gardner here. It is a very quick guide.

But if you know C and PIC architecture, then the manual and the sample code included with the compiler should be all you need really. The manual even makes reference to code files supplied with compiler in the description of each built in function. Code is not so much in the manual, but on your computer where you can compile it and test it out on your PIC without having to type it all out.

Hello,

is in the book of Barnett, Cox,.. an example for using the can-bus?

Best wishes, pom

There is a short example regarding the CAN bus.
