The gpsim software simulator for Microchip PIC microcontrollers has been made available for download and is distributed under the GNU General Public License, Version 2 or higher, and some of it’s ...

We’ve been living a life of luxury, writing our microcontroller code in a text editor and using — of all things — a compiler to turn it into something the chip can use. [Dan Amlund Thomsen] shows us a ...

Functional programming is a programming style that is significantly different than imperative programming languages like C and C++. Functional programs tend to avoid mutable data like variable ...

All of Microchip’s baseline PIC microcontrollers have internal 4-MHz oscillators, which are useful for freeing up one or two pins for I/O use and allowing you to build minimal-component-count designs ...

Microchip has added more memory and 14 new programming instructions, including “C” efficiency optimisations to its mid-range 8-bit PIC microcontrollers. The MCUs now have program flash addressability ...
