This would have been a great video if there was some access to the source code. I would have been happy if you just walked us through how to write it from scratch (like showing some screen shots of the code by section so I could type it out in the IDE) instead of deciphering pre-existing code, especially when we don't have access to that code. This was a waste of time otherwise.

[@airesearch0844]

Exactly my thoughts. I started to follow this course because I had a RF remote with PIC16LF1903 chip in that I wanted to hack it. All went well until the instructor decided to copy app.c and app.h from nowhere. :-(

[@abandonedcranium6592]

@@airesearch0844 That is the same spot where I completely lost where he was going. At first, I was thinking that app.c was the main code(prewritten) and he was just going to delete main.c in the project and rename app.c Nope. My train derailed at that point.

I just wanted to understand the mechanisms of MCC for possible future programming of the devices in C, but unfortunately in these videos the visibility was not taken care of.

Use flowchart to code converter for firmware design and auto coding

[@2bit661]

Can somebody comment on what I am about to ask? At 22:09 Stan is talking about how C language compiles into assembly language. Is this actually correct? I was thinking that C language code compiles directly into machine code (zeros and ones 010101010). Maybe Stan is making the point that C is a higher level language and a simple C statement would require many different assembly instructions. Perhaps, he is explaining to beginners that C is a higher level language, and Assembly is lower level. But, once again, I ask: Does C language compile into assembly language before it is converted to machine code (zeros and ones)? Or, does a C compiler directly convert C language into machine code (zeros and ones)? (I am not being rhetorical. I'm not fault-finding Stan's lesson either. Its a good video. I'm sincerely asking) Thanks in advance.

[@Zh87119]

The compile process is explained in the XC8 user manual from page 81 of 50002053g.pdf C is a higher level language, it's many "source" files get "compiled" into an Assembly file which is then assembled into a hex file which can be programmed into the microcontroller. The Assembler also creates a cof file for debugging , but this is a very basic summary of the full process which you can read up on. Assembly is a low level language, compact and executes faster. There is an excellent presentation on the Microchip Developers site microchipdeveloper.com/tls2101:start This has great description of the compliation process if you download all the material and review the presentation which covers the compilation. I see the site is busy being transferred to Microchip University site but link still worked while writting this comment.

Exists libraries for serial port and I2C?

[@Zh87119]

Hi Luciano, yes libraries for serial and I2C are available. Depending on which device you would like to use, but below are some links you may find useful taken from help links within MPLAB X IDE while configuring a PIC16F1789 device. Each device is unique and related documentation from datasheets can be referred to. For serial check out links microchipdeveloper.com/xpress:introduction-to-eusart microchipdeveloper.com/8bit:usart There is upgrading of sites going on at the moment so access to I2C material seems to be a bit of a challenge today, but follow the same steps using MCC Device resources as done for the USART/EUSART above.

Find or rewrite the code. Watching 1 hour of video just for it to lack supporting references is pointless.

@@MicrochipTechnology The example applications found on the microchipdeveloper site expect that you are experienced and understand the basic concepts. I am an experienced programmer with PLC systems but am finding this move to the Microchip/C programming land a very difficult and confusing journey. There needs to be some documentation explaining better the simple source code available. Not just comments in the source but maybe some flow charts explaining the flow of the predefined library code.
