• I am making this tutorial with the
motivation that, it will be helpful for
the fellow students and it’s a small
contribution toward students
society.
•
• I hope and expect that the students
coming afterwards will contribute
further and we will improve
collectively by helping each other.

 CONTENTS

• Basic Tutorial
• Pic wizard
• Pic Device Selector
• Fuses and Interrupts list
• Serial Port Moniter

Note : “Basic Tutorial” (for Beginners) is sufficient for creating and compiling
the complete project. Next topics (Pic wizard & onwards) describe the extra
utilities provided by the compiler that make some tasks easier.

COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICAL ENGEENERING CAE

 INTRODUCTION
• Pic wizard is a useful tool that helps the user
for initializing peripherals and writing code
for PIC u-Controller.
•
• Different peripherals options/settings are
presented in form of Graphical User Interface
(GUI).
•
• It creates the basic layout of the code that
include different interrupt service routines,
initialization parameters for timers,
interrupts and other

COLLEGE OF AERONAUTICAL ENGEENERING CAE

 INTRODUCTION
• A large PIC family provides user, the flexibility
to select the chip which fulfill the
requirement optimally.
•
• The devices which have large features are
more costly. So, from Economical point of
view, select the device which only has
those features that the design requires.
•
• Device Selection Tool is helpful in selecting
the appropriate chip which meets the
design requirement .

LIST
• This tool of the compiler can be used
to see the fuses and interrupts that
can be used for a specific device.
•
• Thus, it provides a quick glance, at
the fuses and interrupts options
available for a particular Pic device,
instead of tedious search in the
device data sheet
