To develop a program for the PIC 16F84A using the MPLAB v8 IDE simulator software. The program is to convert your student number (10 ASCII characters), one character at a time, to 74210 code. Each converted character is to be displayed on 5 LEDs connected to Port B (B0 to B4) of the microcontroller. Further, each converted character will be ON for 3 second and OFF for 1 second. Once all characters have been displayed the program will stop and the LEDs will be OFF.
Objectives:
Report:
Your report must include:
Submit the report (*.pdf only format), disassembly listing and MPLAB IDE file (*.hex) via StudyDesk, (EASE) as attachments. That is, 2 files to be submitted.
