Re: Servo on PIC18F87k22

Hello,
Thank you for the tip but it doesn't work yet.
I took a look on the C code and it seems that the servo macros are based on interrupts on ccp1 (or ccp2) peripherals.
But I was wondering if it could use ccp peripheral to generate timings without using corresponding pins?
As I don't use this ...

Servo on PIC18F87k22

Hello,
I'm experimenting the servo macros on my custom board based on PIC18F87k22.
I'm trying to drive a hobby servo on port RF7, but nothing moves.
I tried to drive this pin manually and I can make this servo move, though I'm asking myself if there is some restrictions for using the servo macro ...

Re: Sending strings over RS232

Thanks LeighM!
Disabling Extended Instruction Set did the trick.

Re: Sending strings over RS232

Hello,

I'm experiencing the same problem with sendRS232String():
I'm using a software UART on pin RC5 (RX) and RC4 (TX) of a PIC18F87k22 microcontroller.
In the attached .fcf file, I send "TEST" string as separate caracters with SendRS232Char() (the result on the TX line is OK), but when I try to ...

Re: 12-bit adc resolution PIC18F87k22

Maybe this 12-bit resolution factor is corrected in Flowcode v5?

Re: ADC problem with 18F87K22 on easypic_pro_v7 board

Hi,
If you are using Flowcode v4.5:
Did you try to change the faulty adc files in flowcode directories:
PIC_ADC_28.c and PIC_ADC_29.c in C:\Program Files\Matrix Multimedia\Flowcode V4\Components
may have bugs.
You have to replace them with the ones in the following thread:

Re: 12-bit adc resolution PIC18F87k22

I double check that, just in case: I confirm Vref is set to 500 x 10mV.
But I took a look at the code of the ReadAsVoltage() function:
float FCD_ADC0_ReadAsVoltage()
{


int iSample;
float fSample, fVoltage, fVperDiv;

#define MX_ADC_VREF_V 500

iSample = FCD_ADC0_ReadAsInt(); //Read as 10-bit ...

12-bit adc resolution PIC18F87k22

Hi,
I'm using a PIC18F87k22 microcontroller and I'm stuck with the Read_as_string ADC component.
I should have measurements between 0 to 5V, instead I have 0 to 20V, which is 4 times grater than expected.
It seems that the conversion factor is using a 10-bit ADC resolution (max adc code = 1023 ...
