Basic PIC Frequency Counter

Here is a Basic PIC Frequency Counter design. For Arduino version click here. It doesn't not attempt to compete with some advance designs and has a very limited frequency range, however it can be used as a starting point to ...

Digital Power Supply 0-14 Volt

Digitally Controlled Power Supply from 0-14 Volt based on PIC16F876A will be demonstrated in this post. This is a modification of Digital Power Supply 2.5-12V article and has similar characteristics. The most noticeable difference is the use of PCF8591P I2C Digital to ...
