A Tutorial on PIC18F Based Hardwar Design Using C Programming Language+ Shant Dilanian, Yumin L and Rajan Chandra The

objective of this tutorial is to use the PIC18F2221 Microcontroller and Microchip development tools to design and implement a simple project. Specifically we develop C-code in order to flash the LED is connected to the least significant bits of PORT B, RB0 (See Figure 1)

Start Microchips MPLAB IDE

From File Select New Enter your C source program and save it in the project directory

//LED Flashing Program to be saved as ADC.C #include <p18f4221.h> #pragma config OSC = INTIO2 #pragma config WDT = OFF #pragma config LVP = OFF #pragma config BOR = OFF void delay(); void main (void) {TRISB=0x00; while(1) { unsigned char i; unsigned char j; PORTB=0x00; delay(); PORTB=0x01; delay(); } } void delay(){ unsigned char i, j; for(i=0; i<100; i++) for(j=0; j<255; j++) ;

From Project select ProjectWizard Click Next

Select the device(Please Select 18F4221 instead) Click Next

Select Microchips C18 Toolsuite Click Next

Click Browse

Browse to the folder where you want your project to be saved and give it a name (Here it is called C1) Click Save

Click Next

Add the header, library, linker, and source files to the project . Click Next (Please select p18F4221.h, p18f4221.lib and p18f4221.lkr files instead)

Click Finish

From Project select Build Options / Project (In your work, you will see p18f4221 files)

Select Include Search Path Click New and browse to: Header directory Within MCC18 directory

Select Library Search Path Click New and browse to: Library directory Within MCC18 directory

Select Linker Script Search Path Click New and browse to: Linker directory Within MCC18 directory Click OK

From Programmer /Select Programmer select PICKit2

Click Build All icon

Click Program the target device icon

click Bring target MCLR to Vdd

The picture shown below shows the flashing LED:
