Microchip has upped the security of a family of PIC18 microcontrollers by adding a one-time disable to its programming and debugging interface. Called PDID (programming and debugging interface disable ...

In recent years, integrated platforms equipped with microcontrollers (with Arduino probably being the best-known brand) have been gaining popularity.

The microcontroller’s CPU reads program code from memory, one instruction at a time, decodes each instruction, and then executes it. All memory content—both program code and data—is in binary form: ...

In previous installments, we examined the different types of logic gates in detail, exploring their theoretical and practical applications. In this next part, we will dive into the practice of ...

Microchip Technology has introduced the MPLAB PICkit Basic, an affordable and versatile in-circuit debugger designed to simplify programming and debugging for engineers, hobbyists, and students. The ...
