Thank you for your ideas and response. It seems text to voice conversion is not a big deal around here.
Anyway, I have my problem solved. I resorted to using a V-Stamp text to voice module. I really wanted to use I2C for communications but was stuck with V-Stamp's uart requirements.
String...
Not sure if this is the right forum or not, I deleted it once but I'll try again here
I'm stuck! What I am trying to do is read the output (I2C) from a temperature sensor (TMP175), convert that text to speech and then transmit via Bluetooth to a receiver. I already have the temperature sensor...
The heck with VIDs & PIDs!!!!
I know what my problem was/is and I hope to get a bootloader working as soon as I get my new computer up and running time premitting, soon. I am using my crappy laptop as I type. The new machine has Windows 7 so that should take care of V & Ps.
I feel like a jerk...
My reply in post #5 ahs a MAJOR ERROR because I did not thoroughly read it before & after posting!!!
My reference to a resistor SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RESISTOR IS AN INEXPENSIVE WAY not an expensive way to provide current limitations. I am apologize for this typo.
Foggy
You should provide current limitation even if the LED is duty cycle pulsed. Prove it to yourself, take a diode and connect it to a low voltage power supply, gradually increase the voltage an watch the current increase at the knee where the diode conducts. It doe not take much for them to say...
BigDog-- Thanks for replying.
I have been on this thing now for so long, I do not trust anything that I am doing including installing the drivers. So with that said, any guidance you can offer will be very helpful including driver installation. I had copied some drivers and pasted them into...
I am stuck! I have tried (almost typed tired which I am) both the HID & MCHPUSB USB bootloaders (C18) with ziltch success. My XP powered PC just ignores my boot loaded board. And yes, I have a hunch my problem is related to the the VID & PID.... easy to say but I am struggling trying to resolve...
I am aware of Microchip's purchase of Hi-Tech although I did not know they were phasing it out. That is very interesting! I have not placed my order yet, and unless it can be handled electronically, it will have to wait until after the weekend. I thought about ordering the Hi-Tech compiler...
Kieth--
"The Standard-Eval Version is free! It has all the features of the full compiler and libraries. After 60 days, the optimizations related to procedural abstraction and to the extended instruction set of the newer PIC18XXXX devices will be disabled." From Microchip.
I have a 20% 30 day...
Kernighan & Ritchie is out of print but I believe it is available free on line for those interested.
Besides recommending books, I recommend (as one of my college professors often did) is that "one must take the cook book and cook!" By all means, do you rstudying but do actual programming as...
I downloaded MicroChip's C18 last spring, used it to learn/familiarize self for Pic18F programming in C. The time trial passed before I even learned what a function was.......but I plodded onward with the limited capabilities still available to me. Things were fine until........ I needed two...
Thanks BigDog.
I was afraid that might be the case. I am using a development board purchased from Future along with their programmer so board wise, I am OK. I have studied the stuff in the C18 user's guide along with their help forums and it just looks like I am stuck. Yes, one can write...
I have a small home project using C18 with a PIC18F4550 that needs to display some digitally adjusted 3 digit integers along with text strings on four lines of a 20X4 LCD display. Now those familiar with Newhaven ...and maybe for all I know, other similar displays, one can write a byte...
