Re: One wire DS18S20 Error

Hi. Hi I have been playing those devices, and never get them working really reliable (burned one Eberspächer chamber, because of sensor jamming -> back to the ntc temp sensing). Those devices seems to be very sensitive of timings and noise. With the noise in bus, it could jam, only way to get it wor...

Re: 33F Canbus with DMA

Hi.
Yes, I am using the flowcode internal can component.. I can post the code, but its very simple, just can init and in the loop delay, and can send buffer macro.. It is only to test the can component.
So are you using the 33f internal can, at flowcode6? With success?

33F Canbus with DMA

Hi. Have anyone managed to get internal canbus working with 33F chip, which have can via DMA controller? I tested with 33F, but I only get some I/O traffic for a moment, about half frame (no valid can message), then the tx pin just pulses. The hardware should be ok, it works with 30F6012A nicely. Be...

Re: SSD1289 TFT SSD1963

Hi. The code of the SSD component is probably originally written by me. The code don't work at the 1963 driver, or at least I think so, it has never written at 1963 driver.. BUT when I looked the the 1963 datasheet (for long time ago) it looks that the differences could be only at the init routine, ...

Re: Bug in CAN baudrate in dspic V5.5.2.1

Hi. This is the bug what I was talking some thread earlier.. The thing is that Flowcode set the CANCKS bit at 0, and then the whole CAN engine runs at FOSC/4, but the flowcode uses the FOSC at the baudrate calculation, so the values which flowcode shows is 4 times too high.. So the error can be solv...

Re: dsPIC 5.5 Internal CAN problem

I wounder if this is only the 30F60XX chips or if it is all dsPIC? I am quite sure that it's same for all 30F chips, when when CANCKS is set at 1, the whole can engine runs a 1/4 speed, and that should notice when calculating the baud rate.. So in the flowcode, the bus rate should be divided by 4. ...

Hello after upgrading to the latest dsPIC 5.5 version I was not able to compile my CAN projects created in 5.4.

Re: dsPIC 5.5 Internal CAN problem

Ok. I just used the notepad++ search function, and it didn't find that.. Is the baud rate calculation corrected, if the CAN CKS is set at 1, the whole can engine runs 1/4 speed of previous, so if the baud rate calculation is not corrected, the result is that if you set the baud rate at 500Kbs, the a...

Re: Push button Vs LED layout

Evening Mika, From you picture it is possible to drop the voltage with a Zener Diode but in the documents Flowcode is using the 47K to shunt the LED with the option of setting the Port B as INPUT. John No it's not possible... Using the port both at the input and output is quite easy, if you mean th...

Re: Push button Vs LED layout

Hi. The only way that I can think to get the button and Led working as you want is use 3 volt zener diode serial to diode, like picture below Led_button.jpg . The led and 3 volt zener serial should let the pullup resistor rise the voltage at 3v+ LED forward voltage (about 4.8V), but the pullup resis...

The led is quite hard to get work that way that it don't react when the switch is pressed, at least I don't know how that could be done..
Isn't is possible to move leds different port than switch?

Re: Push button Vs LED layout

Hi. The reason why I asked about the resistors is that the way you describes the led and button schematic in you pdf creates quite simple voltage divider at the PIC port. So if you use the 10kohm resistors the voltage goes like this (5V - 1.8V)*(30kohm/10Kohm) + 1.8V... That 1.8V is the forward volt...
