For those that are interested, PicNPoke now has an Address Mode Tutor. This is an animated tutorial to help beginners learn about addressing RAM and ROM in the PIC chips, specifically the 16F84. It covers the INDF, FSR, PCLATH, PCL and STATUS registers. You can run a Quick See mode where the computer does the tutorial, or you can manually enter values into the registers and run the animation to see how the changes affect addressing. Registered users, get your upgrades from Dontronics free. Regards Tony For the beginner.... PicNPoke Multimedia 16F84 Simulator Assembler, and Tutorial. Now with PicNPlay circuit simulator. Plus animated Address Mode Tutor. http://www.dontronics.com/picnpoke.html

After a brief illness, (read that Bored while recuperating), I created another addition to PicNPoke, called PicNPort. For those that are interested... It is a tutorial about the I/O Ports on the F84. It covers things like, latches, using the port, addressing, Read, Write, Modify, Floating inputs, Schmitt input, Interrupts, and Pullups etc.. All up there are 17 animated learning modules, some of them interactive, which run for more than 65 minutes. Regards Tony. PS, I had just under 2000 PICLIST Emails when I opened my mail box. Whew!!

Well those two weeks went fast, PicNQuiz is now available with PicNPoke. It has hundreds of questions to ask about the 16F84 and presents them randomly in blocks of 20 with a score available at the end. You would probably have a sore b*m by the end of them all. My missus was also king enough to do some voice overs to brighten things up a bit. My voice sounds like the one that tells the time on the phone:-) Regards Tony PicNPoke Multimedia 16F84 Beginners PIC Tools.

Oh Tony, you aren't suggesting that this was an oral exam were you <g>? > >My missus was also king enough to do some voice overs to brighten >things up a bit.

Thanks for your professional efforts. I just might have to get a copy before I go to Taiwan on Sunday.

Hi all, Just announcing that PicNPoke has got another learning module called PicNPrac. It is another animated tutorial that covers subjects like Interrupts, Sleep, TMR0, Reset, Instruction Timing, EEPROM, and the WDT. User interaction is available in most of the subjects, and all up the tutorial runs for nearly 2 1/2 hours. PicNPoke as a whole has also been revamped a bit. Soon all the software will be available for download at any time, but will only function in demo mode, until a 'key' is purchased to unlock it. I hope that will make things a little less confusing. It will be available ASAP. The missus is getting tired of seeing the Greys growing out of the back of my head, so I don't know how much more I can put in. 8-) Regards Tony -- Multimedia 16F84 Beginners PIC Tools. **New PicNPrac** PicNPoke, PicNPlay, PicNPlan, PicNPrep, PicNPost, PicNPort, PicNQuiz, DT Type Saver and HexPic. http://www.picnpoke.com Email spam_OUTpicnpokeTakeThisOuTcdi.com.au

Hi all, I hope everyone enjoyed or is still enjoying the holiday season. PicNPoke now has it's own WIN 95 serial driven DIY programmer and Real World Port Interface included with the software. The Real World Interface mates with the PicNPoke and PicNPlay simulators and allows the beginner to watch code execute on screen while the interface allows real connections to, and simulates, both PortA and PortB of a 16F84. Interrupts, Pullups etc are all supported. The PCB and Schematic designs, plus all details on how to build it are supplied in PDF format. Source code for the PIC is also supplied. The PCB has also been designed to let you program the project PIC without needing a separate programmer. My thanks to Jim Robertson at Newfound who helped with some of the programmer problems. See my web site for more details. -- Best regards Tony Multimedia 16F84 Beginners PIC Tools. ** NEW - PIC Programmer and Port Interface ** http://www.picnpoke.com Email .....picnpokeKILLspam@spam@cdi.com.au
