2.1. PIC16 C Getting Started
• Simple program and test circuit
• Variables, looping, and decisions
• SIREN program
Programming PIC microcontrollers in C is introduced here using the simplest possible programs, assuming that the reader has no previous experience of the language. The CCS compiler uses ANSI standard syntax and structures. However, a compiler for any given microcontroller uses its own variations for processor-specific operations, particularly input and output processes. These are fundamental to MCU programs and so will be introduced from the start.
Simple Program
Microcontroller programs contain three main features:
• Sequences of instructions
• Conditional repetition of sequences
• Selection of alternative sequences
The following basic ...
