PIC Links

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.

Note: Help us out with this list by adding links or improving the site comments, fix errors....

Topic	Topic Link	Comment
Links PIC	Microchip Net resources	This has the most links on the PIC that I have seen in one place.
Projects Info PIC	Welcome to the official PICList home page.	This is the place to go for a PIC message board, also many articles. Do not post here until you know what you are doing.
Info General Links PIC	PIC hints and direction	A link page that largely links. Small DC Power Supply, other link pages, may be useful.
Info PIC	Pick a Peck of PIC's Library	Interesting not always easy.
Project PIC	Electronic combination lock with PIC	Electronic combination lock with PIC
Info Tutorial PICIntro PIC	Beginners checklist for PIC Microcontrollers	Beginners checklist for PIC Microcontrollers. An excellent place to start.
Links PIC	Spread Spectrum Scene PIC STUFF	Lots of links.
Project PIC	Peter's electronic projects and links	Not all PIC but quite a few.
Info PICIntro Project PIC	What is a PICmicro?	This guy is very smart, a good site.
Pic Links	PicMicro Webring	If you do not know what a WebRing perhaps you can figure it out from here.
Project Robotics 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 PicIntro PIC	The PIC Chip Uncovered	Introduction to the PIC.
Project PIC	Battery Charger	Nice little battery charger. Universal Nicad/NiMH Includes printed circuit design. Software is assembler.
Tutorial PICIntro PIC	Using the MicroChip PIC Microcontroller	A technical overview designed for students Another simple introduction.
Tutorial PICIntro PIC	pic Micro Programming In Boostc For Beginners	Good beginner level
Tutorial PICIntro PIC	A really Basic Guide to the PIC Microprocessor and BoostC	A really Basic Guide to the PIC Microprocessor and BoostC
Project PICIntro Tutorial PIC	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.
Info PIC Links	Embedded Systems/PIC Microcontroller	A bit brief, may be improved over time.
Project PIC	PIC Projects based on flash pic microcontrollers.	A big collection of projects.
PIC Forum	the official Microchip forum	lots of discussion -- try using Google to search this site, rather than the built-in search tool.
CLang ASM	Microchip "Code Module Library"	While different versions of C are different, these may help no matter which version you are using. Some versions of Microchips compilers are free.
ASM	Dring Engineering Services	Wizards and calculators for generating PIC code.
Project ASM	PIC Based Logic Probe	Might be handy around your lab.
Tutorial	Introduction - How I got into using the PIC 16F628, 16F876 and other processors	One person's experience
Project	PICGuide.org	Lots of projects
Project	Drake: PICmicro and Maarten's computer	A nice little game built out of a PICmicro, a 2-line LCD screen, and a few supporting components on a solderless breadboard. Also more complex version with larger screen display. Source code and schematics available for download.
Tutorial ASM	[triggers spam filter: www.geocities.com/nozomsite/pic1.htm PIC 16F84]	Nice little introduction, more stuff elsewhere on site.

PIC Project BoostC Tutorial	A Really Basic Guide to the PIC Microprocessor and BoostC	This is meant to be a more introductory guide to the PIC microprocessor and BoostC ( [1] ) than any I have been able to find on the web. Additionally I assume that you have only limited knowledge of electronics and other microprocessors.
CLang ASM Info Tutorial	Wiki about Microchip USB PIC	wiki dedicated to PIC microcontrollers with a USB interface (such as PIC18F2550, PIC18F4550, PIC18F2553, etc.) PIC USB tutorial.
