9600 BAUD Rate Problem statement: The data read by the PICKit2 UART tool is not consistent, junk characters are being displayed. I use PICKit2 UART tool for testing communication UART Variables: 1. Objective: To create a UART USB based logger to PC from PIC Context: 1. I remembered that I installed drivers but nothing is showing up in my device manager (windows 10).Ĭode: #pragma config FOSC = INTOSCIO // Oscillator Selection bits (INTOSC oscillator: I/O function on RA6/OSC2/CLKOUT pin, I/O function on RA7/OSC1/CLKIN) #pragma config WDTE = OFF // Watchdog Timer Enable bit (WDT disabled) #pragma config PWRTE = OFF // Power-up Timer Enable bit (PWRT disabled) #pragma config MCLRE = OFF // RA5/MCLR/VPP Pin Function Select bit (RA5/MCLR/VPP pin function is digital input, MCLR internally tied to VDD) #pragma config BOREN = ON // Brown-out Detect Enable bit (BOD enabled) #pragma config LVP = OFF // Low-Voltage Programming Enable bit (RB4/PGM pin has digital I/O function, HV on MCLR must be used for programming) #pragma config CPD = OFF // Data EE Memory Code Protection bit (Data memory code protection off) #pragma config CP = OFF // Flash Program Memory Code Protection bit (Code protection off)#include #define _XTAL_FREQ 4000000 void main() And, in this case, the RA4 and RA5 bits stay low (the other bits behave as expected).All, Am facing problems with UART in PIC16F628A. The PICkit's power light lights up when I plug it in, otherwise nothing happens. I probably didn't read something that I should read, but for now I'm just trying to program a 10F220 withn empty or simple program (like blinking a LED). I was hoping someone with more experience could give me some advice. There are lots of tutorials out there, but they are all for different, older versions of the IDE and IPE. Under the 'Device Family' tab select Baseline, and then PIC16F54 from the Device drop-down list. Last edited: Bill geko Active Member 3 You will have to program the HEX using the PICkit 2 Programmer software. Is this because PICkit2 is not longer supported? Should I download an older version of IPE? The user guides are not very helpful (though I have just skimmed through them). It is a parallel programmed PIC, you need a PICStart+ to program those. I can compile an empty generated project to a hex file succesfully, but MPLAB IPE won't let me select my PICkit2 (the 'tools' dropdown menu stays empty). I downloaded the MPLAB X IDE (newest, v3.45) and the compiler for 8-bit microcontrollers, the XC8. I also have some 10F220's laying around that I want to program.

Hi there, I recently bought a PICkit2 clone.
