Now we take a look at the second function of the VCNL4020 – ambient light The ambient light capability of the VCNL4020 can be used with the PIC18F56Q71 to measure changes in surrounding illumination and present the readings directly on …

The Nano Explorer features an OLED display, this makes it an ideal first step to making projects. We can then take sensors for example, like the MCP9808 on the Nano Explorer board and display its values. Using an OLED display …

The PIC18F56Q71 Curiosity Nano has a good old LED on it so lets do the usual basic example. With the development environment already configured in Visual Studio Code, the example concentrates on the small amount of firmware required to configure …

Timers are crucial in PIC microcontroller programming for delay generation, frequency measurement, and periodic event triggering. However, because timers are limited in size (8-bit, 16-bit), they overflow when they exceed their maximum value. Handling timer overflows correctly is essential to …

Structs (struct) and Enums (enum) are powerful features in Embedded C programming that allow better organization of data. In PIC microcontrollers, these help in managing sensor data, configurations, registers, and peripheral settings efficiently. This tutorial will cover: What are Structs …
