Blinking LED with Timer 1 of PIC16F877A

[jean12]

Hello,I am trying to use the timer 1 in Timer mode for timing a determined time for blinking a LED ,but I am not coming out with this,could anyone help me to sort this out?
I am uisng MicroC
the the code below I was trying to use:

//#include <16f877a.h>
int count=0;
void main(void)
 {
  T1CON=0x01;
  TRISC.F7=0X00;
  TRISD.F1=0X00;
  while(1)
  {
  while(TMR1IF==1) ;
  {
    PIR1.TMR1IF=0;
      count++;
      if(count==15)
      {
      count=0;
      PORTC.F7=1;
       delay_ms(1000);
       PORTC.F7=0;
      }
  }
  }
  }

Please help,thank you!!

You are in a wrong category, should be in Microcontrollers

  while(TMR1IF==1) [SIZE=4][COLOR="#FF0000"];[/COLOR][/SIZE]
  {
    PIR1.TMR1IF=0;
  }

I have not pay attention in the logic of your code at all, but as you can see there is a while() and a block following that are not connected. Was that your intension?

Do try some corrections.
I do not like MicroC and so I am not using it. The code bellow may need some variable names corrected to MicroC syntax:

#include <16f877a.h> 

void main(void) 
{ 
  int count=0; 
  T1CON=1; 

  TRISC.F7=0X00; 
  TRISD.F1=0X00; 
  while(1) 
  { 
          //wait till tmr1 overflows
          while(PIR1.TMR1IF==0) ; 

          //tmr1 overflows
          PIR1.TMR1IF=0; 
          count++; 
          if(count==15) 
          { 
                count=0; 
                PORTC.F7=!PORTC.F7; 
          } 
  } 
}

if you have an 4MHz oscillator, the led should stay on for about a second and off for the same time. This will last till powered off.

Hello,Xenos;your codes are very interesting and running as you stated,what if I want a LED to be on a different time to off time of the same.
Assume ON time=1s
OFF Time=5s
I would like to use also for loop for helping me for example to implement the following:
1.OFF TIME=5s
2.OFF TIME=5s
3.OFF TIME=5S
4.ON TIME=2S
5.OFF TIME=5s

Please help,

Hi,

1.OFF TIME=5s
2.OFF TIME=5s
3.OFF TIME=5S
4.ON TIME=2S
5.OFF TIME=5s

Simplified this says: 20s OFF / 2s ON

no no,I was meaning
1.OFF TIME=5s
2.ON TIME=2s
3.OFF TIME=5s
4.ON TIME=2s
5.OFF TIME=3s
6.ON TIME=2s
7.OFF TIME=5s
8.ON TIME=2s
9.OFF TIME=5s


Thank you please help!!

Hi,

Should it now 5s OFF / 2s ON in a loop,

Or do you really want the 3s of your line 5?

If your table starts with OFF, then it should end with ON.

that`s it use microc for showing it.

Thx
