Hello guys,
I am a beginner with microcontrollers and need some advice on how to implment this power saving feature.
I need to put the 18F series PIC device to sleep and wake it up ever 20 ms to check the state of various inputs. The main reason for this is to save power. After some research, it seems the best way to implement this would be with a Watchdog Timer?
Is this correct? Any guidance in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
I will be using the C18 MPLab compiler.
