This fix refers to the library version release 12 April 2011. When using an Explorer 16 board and setting the Macro definition of EXPLORER16_100P in MPLab, parts of the library do not pick it up correctly rendering the heartbeat LED and the UART to not work. No compilor error is noticed. In the file lib\include\pic24_libconfig.h […]

If your using a different linker file than what comes with the compiler you will need to set the /p option for the linker to specify your processor manually. For some reason v3.38 doesn’t pick this up automatically. If this is not done, the following error message will probably be recieved: Error – Device not […]
Hi again. Onto the next example, this time on page 295 (figure 8.28). The code for this one is called ‘ledtoggle_nofsm’ and it’s in the chap8 folder. Now that we’ve defined EXPLORER16_100P in the pic24_all.h file, here is a new checklist to use: Double click on the project file for the exercise your wanting to […]
Continuing with Chapter 8, the next file is the one referred to in Figure 8:5 Improved code example for flashing LED. It takes the previous one and modifies it using macro’s. Well we sort of used macros in the last one to break out the Explorer 16 version and the original. This file is called […]
Well I’m going to run with the PIC24 for the time being and use the Microcontrollers – From Assembly Language to C Using the PIC24 Family book, but jumping to chapter 8 as the assembly language is not what I want at the moment. It’s learning about C and the PIC24. Anyway, as I’m using […]
My Explorer 16 development board arrived yesterday so have been playing with it. Initially the example code that came with the PIC24FJ128GA010, doing some basic things like modifying the looping LCD text, then writing my first program to test the LED’s on the board. Had to make sure it all worked. And as usual stuff from […]
