Introduction Microcontrollers have revolutionized the world of embedded systems by providing a versatile platform for building intelligent devices. In this blog post, we will explore the powerful dsPIC33FJ64GS606 microcontroller and learn how to create an engaging LED blinking project using a 10-millisecond timer interrupt. With a deep dive into the intricacies of timer configuration, we’ll…
Overview Multi-channel PWM signal generation with a dsPIC33 microcontroller involves generating multiple PWM signals simultaneously on different output pins. This capability allows you to control multiple actuators, such as motors or LEDs, with individual PWM signals.

Overview In this project, we’ll learn how to start a vehicle using a fingerprint sensor and how to prevent vehicle theft. We use a fingerprint-based bike start mechanism in this system to address the problem that many people have of leaving their keys somewhere after leaving their home but forgetting where they went until they…
Overview We will learn everything we need to know about using an Arduino to operate stepper motors in this lesson. We’ll go over how to use an M415B and a TMC2208 stepper driver to control a NEMA17 stepper motor. Numerous devices like 3D printers, CNC machines, robots, automation machines, and others that require position control use…
Overview In the modern world, water scarcity is a severe threat that requires careful consideration. In order to meet the rising demand for water caused by a rise in population, wastewater must be treated and used appropriately. Making the wastewater treatment process effective and affordable is also essential. This article suggests a method that can…
Overview In this tutorial, we will learn how to use an External Interrupt in PIC Microcontroller and why/where we will need them. This is a part of the sequence of PIC Tutorials in which we started learning PIC Microcontrollers from scratch; hence this tutorial assumes that you are familiar with how to program a PIC…
Overview In this essay, we will study PIC Microcontroller push button interfacing. The GPIO (General Purpose input-output) pins are also provided by PIC, just like other microcontrollers. We can connect input-output devices to GPIO pins, such as LEDs, switches, adc power supplies, sensors, etc. Here, we’ll see how to operate an SPST (single pole, single…
Overview In this tutorial, we will learn How to Blink an LED with DSPIC33FJ64GS606 Microcontroller using MPAB XC16 Compiler. Product Overview The DSPIC33FJ64GS606-I/PT is a 16-bit Digital Signal Controller with high-speed PWM, ADC and comparators. The PGECx and PGEDx pins are used for In-circuit Serial Programming™ (ICSP™) and debugging purposes. It is recommended to keep the…
Overview One of the most popular ways to communicate with a device using the Modbus protocol is over RS485. We will soon begin the Modbus courses, so before then, I considered talking about RS485 specifically. In the tutorial, we’ll demonstrate how to use the TMS320 to connect the RS485 to the TTL conversion module. I’ll…
