Flash LEDs - PIC Development Board + PIC16F877A

Post by Anobium » Thu Aug 14, 2014 11:10 am

This demonstration uses the PIC - PIC Development Board + PIC16F877A (HCDVBD0003) to flash the LEDs.

No additional components are required simply ensure the LED (j3 /LED - EN) link is in place.

Notes
  • This demo flashes the LEDS in sequence.
    This code can be easily be adapted for other 40 pin Microchip devices, simply change the #chip type
    This code uses the external resonator, however, the #config can be removed to use the internal oscillator

Code: Select all

'  This test program will flash the LEDs connected to port D on the development board, aka Knight Rider.. back and forth LEDs
