Can anybody help me to blink four LEDs connected to port A (RA0;RA1;RA2;RA3) with an interval of 2 seconds please explain the configuration bits and the control registers to do the job

You want to blink all of them at the same time? u can do like this:

            delay2s();    // Delay for 2s
           LATA=~LATA  //Switch off LEDs (toggle port)

    }
}//end delay2s
 

You can calculate your delay as per your requirement and according to your crystal frequency..

Go here,

**broken link removed**

and for blinking an led go to microchip tutorials for general i/o programming.

I am using MPLAB and i want the same to be written in assembly with an external crystal frequency oscillator of 20 Mhz

can anybody tell me the location of ADCON register in PIC 16F628A

- - - Updated - - -

IN PIC16F628A PORT A is associated with CMCON (LOCATION : 1Fh) ; VRCON (LOCATION : 9Fh) but i donn't think ADCON register is there in PIC16F628A

which version of mplab are you using?
Because configuration bits should be programmed using mplab only.

You can assign value ADCON1bits.ADON for enabling or disabling

You can find these registers in ADC module of your Data Sheet.

but why you want to disable ADC for LED's ??

a simple program
//************************************************** *************
void main(void) {
TRISA = 0; // set PortA as output
LATA = 1; // switch on LEDs

while(1) {
LATA = ~LATA // invert off to on & on to off
delay(2); // Delay for 2sec
}
}//end main

void delay(int t){
int i;
while(t--)
for (i = 0;i<1275; count++) // 1275 cycles approx 1ms
Nop(); // donthing.
}//end delay
 

I am using version 8.60 of MPLAB and here is my configuration

__CONFIG _CP_OFF & _DATA_CP_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _BOREN_OFF & _MCLRE_ON & _PWRTE_OFF & _HS_OSC

I am using external clock source with a frequency of 20 Mhz

- - - Updated - - -

I am using PIC16F628A where there is no ADCON REGISTER which are available in PIC 18 Series. I am not dealing with an analog signal therefore i want to disable it
 

Sorry friend. I check 16F628A & fond that it has no ADC but Comparator module so u should switch Off comparator CMCON = 0x07
 

Do i need to configure VRCON which is associated with PORTA

- - - Updated - - -

Here is the program the LEDs are glowing continously but not blinking
#include <P16F628A.INC>
__CONFIG _CP_OFF & _DATA_CP_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _BOREN_OFF & _MCLRE_ON & _PWRTE_OFF & _HS_OSC

MYREG EQU 1AH
ORG 0H
MOVLW 0X07

BCF PORTA, 0
BCF PORTA, 1

GOTO BACK

;------ THIS IS THE DELAY SUBROUTINE

ORG 300H

MOVWF MYREG

DECF MYREG, F

i have modified the time delay loop and engaged the controller for 1 seconds but still not blinking
 

can anybody tell me just to blink only one LED connected to porta pin 2

You need to read the datasheet to know the commands!!!
