  • A Comparison of Low End 8 Bit Microcontrollers
    The PIC16C5X/XX microcontrollers from Microchip Technology Inc., provide significant execution speed and code-compaction improvement over any other 8-bit microcontroller in its price range. The superior performance of the PIC16C5X/XX microcontrollers can be attributed primarily to its RISC
  • Adding a simple 4-channel 8-bit A/D to a PIC17C4X
    The PIC17C4X high end microcontroller family, offered by Microchip, has many features which make it one of the fastest 8-bit microcontrollers in the industry. However one feature which is missing is an on-chip Analog- to-Digital (A/D) converter. This Technical Brief describes how to connect
  • Common 8-Bit PIC (R) Microcontroller I/O Pin Issues
    This technical brief describes solutions for common I/O pin issues for 8-bit PIC (R) devices (PIC10, PIC12, PIC16 and PIC18). Whether an I/O is configured as an input or output is determined by its associated TRIS bit in the TRIS register for that port. For example, TRISA0 (TRISA<0>) would
  • Interfacing a 4x4 Matrix Keypad with an 8-Bit GPIO Expander
    expansion using pin (INT), which will be explained in detail later. 2 C TM and SPI. Theystandard serial interfaces such as I Interrupt-On-Change Feature are especially useful in applications where pin count is limited on the microcontroller unit (MCU) or if remote The MCP23X08 devices have one
  • Using the 8-Bit Parallel Slave Port
    PIC16C64/74 microcontrollers from Microchip Technology Inc. can be interfaced with ease into a multi-microprocessor environment using its built-in Parallel Slave Port (PSP). With their very high operating speeds (cycle times as low as 200 ns with a clock rate of 20 MHz), and an array of on-chip
  • External Memory Interfacing Techniques for the PIC18F8XXX
    memory devices. Through the addition of external memory devices, an 8-bit application has the power to utilize unprecedented amounts of code or data; up to 2 Mbytes for an 8-bit microcontroller!
  • MSP430 Value Line LaunchPad Development Kit (.pdf)
    As applications continue to advance, 8-bit microcontrollers are struggling to meet the growing demand for higher performance and ultra-low power to support evolving product designs. Texas Instruments introduced the affordable 16-bit MSP430 TM MCU Value Line to meet the changing market dynamics
  • VF Control of 3-Phase Induction Motor Using Space Vector Modulation
    algorithm and increases the overall system efficiency. This application note includes the description of the SVM theory and its advantages over the Sine PWM. It also discusses the SVM digital implementation for VF control using Microchip's PIC18FXX31 8-bit microcontrollers.
