Spring is finally here and beautiful flowers have been blooming across the north-east of England and Cumbria with BBC Weather Watchers capturing stunning scenes. This week we picked some of our ...
I have read about GCC's Options for Code Generation Conventions, but could not understand what "Generate position-independent code (PIC)" does. Please give an example to explain me what does it mean.
When programming my PIC18F6722 using MPLAB IDE v8.91 (the 32bit version), my PIC works and starts successfully, but when I use the HEX generated from MPLAB IDE, but program it using MPLAB X IPE, the programming part is successful, but my PIC does not start up.
Programming HEX using MPLAB X IPE v6.15, leads to PIC not starting
COBOL really only has two data types: Numbers and strings. The layout of each field in a COBOL record is precisely specified by a PICTURE (usually abbreviated PIC) clause. The most common ones are: PIC X for strings. PIC X(100) means a 100-byte string. PIC 9 for numbers, optionally with S (sign) or V (implicit decimal point). For example, PIC S9(7)V99 means a signed number with 7 digits to the ...
It's best to just use BANKSEL to do your bank switching automatically. It is a special assembler directive the tells the assembler to switch to the correct bank. So, if you wish to access PORTB, just BANKSEL (PORTB) before using it. PS: PORTB is in BANK0 on the PIC16 family, not BANK1 as in your code.
