FREQOUT works best with a 20 MHz oscillator (while it is more difficult to filter the signal for the lower frequencies). "Onms" represents the duration of the signal in milliseconds.

In order to obtain the desired sinusoidal signal at output, the installation of a sort of filter is required.

Example:

4.16 FOR-NEXT Repeating of the program segment

the program turns on and off the diodes at port B with 1s pause 100 times

auxiliary variable

the program turns on and off the diodes at port B with 1s

pause 900 times

INSTRUCTIONS (2/4)

4.17 GOSUB Calls BASIC subroutines

Description: Executes the PBP instructions of the program which are situated between label "label" and instruction RETURN. When program encounters the RETURN, the execution of the program goes on with the instruction line that follows GOSUB instruction. Part of the program code between the label and the RETURN instruction is commonly called subroutine.

Subroutine can be "nested". In other words, it is possible that the subroutine calls some other program. Such programming should n‘t go beyond four levels depth because of the finite size of the PIC microcontroller stack.

Example:

4.18 GOTO Continues the execution of the program on a certain label

Description: The execution of the program continues with the instruction line following the label "label". It is not recommended to use this command too often, because over-labeled programs are generally less intelligible.

Example:

The program above does exactly the same thing as the previous one, but without GOSUB instruction.

Description: Sets the appropriate pin on the high level. Pin is thereby automatically designated output.

Example:

4.20 HSERIN Hardware asynchronous serial inp ut

Description: HSERIN receives one or more serial data. It can be used with PIC microcontrollers which have hardware supported serial communication, i.e. in those which have hardware USART (e.g. microcontroller 16F877). The parameters of serial transfer are determined at the beginning of the program with the following DEFINE directives :

HSERIN operates with 4 MHz oscillators by default. If the microcontroller is connected with an oscillator of a different frequency it has to be specified :

DEFINE OSC tact ‘ Specific oscillator frequency

Putting the parameters "Timeout" and "Label" enables the continuation of the program even with receiving no character in the course of a "Timeout" interval (specified in milliseconds). Format of the serial data 8N1 (8 bits of the data, without a parity bit and with only one stop bit). Some other formats, such as 7E1 (7 bits of data, parity bit and 1 stop bit) can be used with the previous changes through DEFINE at the beginning of program.

The program may also contain the optional label "Error" at which the program jumps in case of error in transfer or the violation of parity. Label "Error" is used only if the check of parity/non-parity is in advance enabled with the corresponding DEFINE directions. The serial transfer is done by hardware so that for an adapting on RS-232 an additional inverting driver is necessary. Modifiers in HSERIN are the same as by the command SERIN2.

Example:

4.21 HPWM Generates PWM signal on the microcontroller pin

4.22 HSEROUT Hardware asynchronous serial output

Description: HSEROUT sends one or more serial data and is used in the PIC microcontrollers that have hardware supported serial communication (hardware USART). Parameters of serial transfer are determined by with the following DEFINE directives:

When calculating transfer rate, HSERIN assumes that microcontroller works with the 4MHz oscillator. If different oscillator is used, new frequency must be specified with the following directive:

DEFINE OSC ‘ Specific oscillator frequency

Format of serial data is 8N1 - 8 data bits, with no parity bit and with 1 stop bit. Some other formats, such as 7E1 (7 data bits, parity bit, 1 stop bit) or 7O1 (7 data bits, nonparity bit, 1 stop bit) may be used with the following DEFINE directives at the beginning of the program:

10

Loop: goto Loop

end

4.23 I2CREAD Reading data from I2C peripheral device

Description: Sends control and address data via I2C lines and receieved bytes are stored into "Variable".

I2CREAD and I2CWRITE can be used for reading and writing data to peripheral units. These instructions work with I2C master byte in read and write modes and can be also used for communication with other devices with I2C interface, such as temperature sensors, A/D converters, etc.

Higher 7 bits of control byte contain control code for chip selection or extra information on addresses, depending on device. The lowest bit is flag indicating the current mode - read or write.

For example, for communicating with 24LC01B, requested address is 8-bit, control code is %1010 and chip select is unused, so that control byte would be %10100000 or $A0.

Formats of control bytes for several other serial EEPROMs are given in the table below:

bbb= block selection

ddd = device selection bits xxx = has no effect

If 2-byte data (WORD) is received, higher byte is received first, and lower thereafter. For
