    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    I got this working now... :-D Thanks for all your help guys. It turned out to be a combination of things. The working code.... program Charge_Pump_PIC12F675 ' Processor speed @ 1MHz ' All additional off (Watchdog off, brownout off, etc) '...

    Difference between a Virtual Machine and the Bootable OS

    i use VMWare Virtual machine to run Mac OS (for developing apps and testing homemade software) and XP on a windows 7 computer. You can normally spec the amount of ram you want to allocate each of the virtual machines from your actual memory. VM Ware is like running a computer within a computer...

    I need to make a PCB shortly (next month or so), I could be a guinea pig? :-)

    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    well it was mainly because I have so many of them, so thought I'd put them to good use. But for all the hassle their worth, i might just sell them on ebay as apparently the playstation modders love them. I've gone for the 12f675 as that's all the local electronics shop had. So i've adjusted the...

    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    actually it was quite tricky for someone who codes pics once in a blue moon, to get working and in the right frequency range. hey-ho.

    Nevermind, got it working now.... :-) program charge_pump_controller ' Declarations section ' Header****************************************************** symbol RELAY = PORTB.0 ' Pin PORTD.3 is named RELAY dim LOWFREQ as byte ' Variable TEST is of byte type dim HIGHFREQ as byte dim...

    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    thanks..... I tried doing something similar with the 16f628a in Mikrobasic, just so I could understand what was going on a little better. It works but for some strange reason, it turns on at 1KHz, then off at 3KHz and the back on again at 5KHz. Same thing happens at certain other frequencies...

    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    Thanks for getting back to me. What would be the best way to time it? Could one way be to reset the watchdog timer when both loops have been met, thereby allowing the code to proceed to the "output on" statement?

    Engine Control Unit (ECU) using dsPIC33F

    Perhaps you could start selling them to the tuning scene as aftermarket ECUs. On some ECUs, the manufacturers lock you out of being able to modify the original map. If you could incorporate some kind of data logging for race track use, that would be a great feature.

    Offering a cheap PCB assembly service (UK)

    Shame. Because that is one thing I've been scouring the internet for. Most of them expect you to buy PCBs in their hundreds, not a 10 of and charge thousands of pounds for the privilege. There needs to be someone on the market who does simple hobbist PCB service on their CNC router or something...

    [SOLVED] 12c508 frequency switch

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone was able to help me with some code. I'm building a frequency activated relay using a 12C508, which triggers when the input frequency is between 4-15KHz (square wave). Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated. :-) I was given this code as an...
