Week 9: March 16, 2012 (Friday)

Hardware - PIC  Controller

Today I try to simulate the program using 18F4585. Initially, the simulation did not work due to error in proteus schematic. The vcc connected to MCLR is not wired properly therefore the MCLR is always reset. After the problem is fixed, the simulation works. Then, I started to test the program on PIC 18F4585 testing circuit. The PIC was programmed by using Galep-5 Universal Programmer. The circuit run successfully. Then I started to construct the PIC circuit on a single hole board.

I'm using a ZIF (zero insertion force) socket for ease of programming as I'm using a separate programmer to program the IC. The wiring process to be completed tomorrow.
