Review: A Delay Subroutine
; ***********************************************************************************
; TenMs subroutine and its call inserts a delay of exactly ten milliseconds
; into the execution of code.
; It assumes a 4 MHz crystal clock. One instruction cycle = 4 * Tosc.
; TenMsH equ 13
; Initial value of TenMs Subroutine's counter
; TenMsL equ 250
; COUNTH and COUNTL are two variables

Review: Strategy to “Blink”


The LEDs are
toggled in sequence
- green, yellow, red,
green, yellow, red…
Let’s look at the
lower three bits of
PORTD
001=green,
010=yellow, 100=red
Read current PORTD
state
Green (001)?
Yes
Toggle Red LED
(010->100)
No
Yellow (010)?
No
Toggle Green LED
(100->001)
The next LED to be
toggled is determined
by the current LED.
001->010->100->001->…


Yes
Toggle Yellow LED
(001->010)

; Copy present state of LEDs into W
; and keep only LED bits
; Change PC with PCLATH and offset in W
; (000 -> 001) reinitialize to green
; (001 -> 010) green to yellow
; (010 -> 100) yellow to red
; (011 -> 001) reinitialize to green
; (100 -> 001) red to green
; (101 -> 001) reinitialize to green

PIC microcontroller programming





Done through MPLAB IDE
Allows for generation of projects in assembly
or in C
Options to generate initialization code
Simulator to allow code testing before
programming hardware
In-circuit debugger to view device state while
hardware is actually running

PIC assembler directives

banksel label



cblock/endc


Used to define a block of variables
org address



Changes BSR to bank containing label
Example: banksel TRISC
Indicates starting address for block of code that
follows
Address 0 in simple programs (initial PC value)
#include file

4/13/2015
Typically used to include processor-specific
definitions, macros

Example 1 notes (.asm)

TRISC: controls state of Port C pins



LATC: used for writing data to Port C



TRISC bits = 1  corresponding pins are inputs
TRISC bits = 0  corresponding pins are outputs
Equivalent to writing to PORTC register
Convention: for input, read PORTC; for output,
write LATC
Infinite loop at end

4/13/2015
$ symbol—special label for current instruction

Example 1: Light single LED (C)
void main(void) {
TRISCbits.TRISC0 = 0;
// Pin 0 =
// output
LATC = 0; //clear all pins to 0
LATCbits.LATC0 = 1; // turn ON LED
while(1) continue;
}



Can access entire registers by name
To access individual bits, use form:
regnamebits.regname#
