As soon as we start getting familiar with the basics of Arduino, we start noticing some interesting components that are not commonly used on the Arduino. One of these things are the ICSP headers. They ...

As promised, this part starts with a simple programming tutorial on the PIC12F675 microcontroller which shows you how to program and use it as a simple LED flasher. It’s assumed that you have ...

Once more dreaming of making things, I started to puzzle over finding small connectors to allow in-circuit programming (ICSP S=serial) of a PIC as well as to allow a couple of push-buttons to be ...

Controller Area Network (CAN) and Local Interconnect Network (LIN) are quickly becoming the automotive industry's control networks of choice. Mi-crochip Technology's PIC18Cx58 and PIC-16C43x ...
