UART Communication with PIC16F877A Starter Board Revision as of 19:00, 2 May 2016 by Explorer (Talk | contribs) (diff) ← Older revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)

In this tutorial we will be doing the serial communication on PIC16F877A Starter board.
PIC starter board has an on board Usb-to-Serial converter and you do not need any other hardware other than this board.

UART Pins

Below table shows the PIC16F877A Starter board UART pins.

UART Pin	Controller Pin
RX	PORTC.7
TX	PORTC.6

Code

Below is the sample code to send a string a 9600 baud rate.
Refer the uart.c/uart.h files for more functions.

	#include "uart.h"
	int main()
	{
	UART_Init(9600);
	while(1)
	{
	UART_Printf("Welcome to PIC Serial Programming by ExploreEmbedded\n\r");
	}
	return (0);
	}
