Скачать или смотреть Your first microcontroller project!

In this simple tutorial we explore how YOU can get started with PIC microcontrollers!

Rather than explaining every little thing in excruciating detail, in this tutorial I focus on the bare minimum so that we can arrive at a cool project quickly and easily! I find this way of learning much more rewarding myself. Please let me know if I should have explained something in more detail, and I will try to do so in an upcoming video!

In this video I explain how to program a PIC microcontroller. Then I will show you how to generate the hex file and flash it onto the controller using the PICkit3 and a simple breadboard circuit. And in a third step we will build a test circuit on another breadboard: this is the final project, and we will see how to make an LED blink. We will go through the schematic together so that there are no questions unanswered (I hope).

If you are not yet decided if you want to learn electronics, this is the ideal start for you! No prior knowledge is assumed, and you don't even need to solder anything. All you need is some time and some interest!
