Our download section contains Software and Pic program code which is based on our product range. Also some program code which has been updated Or other peoples variations of code. Where possible Schematics will be provided in the zip file.

Description: This is simple utliity used with the Development board, which will display the value required to turn on the selected segments of a 7 segment display when directly driven from a microcontroller.
Simply click on the segment required to turn it on / off and read off the values shown. The values shown can be selected between common Anode or common Cathode displays, the value can be displayed in Decimal, Binary or Hex format.

5x7 LED matrix.zip

Description: This is another little utility used with the Development board.
This utlility will display the values required to generate the selected character on a 5x7 led matrix display. the software will display the row Data required for each coloum of the display and can generate a lookup table that can be cut and pasted into your source code for the displayed character.
Simply click on the dot required to turn it on / off and read off the values shown. the values shown can be selected between common Anode or common Cathode displays and value can be displayed in Decimal, Binary or Hex format.

modules.zip
Author: MicroByte Electronics

Description: This is the PIC Micro Sample source code and Hex file for all the Development Modules that are currently available. The zip file contains Folders for each of the modules. The zip file also includes a demo source code on how to daisy chain all the addressable modules off one control and one data bus. Detailed description of the code is whithin the ASM files for each module. The file will be updated whenever a new module or code sample is created.
File Last updated 5th Feb 2003.

PIC508.zip
Author: Michael G

Description: Here is a little bit of inginuety from a person who had purchased the PIC Development Board and wanted to use it with a PIC12C508. Michael has created a PCB to fit into the 40 pin socket so he is able to program the PIC12C508 and also included a I/O connector to connect to circuit modules on the development board or other acessories. Michael G has made the Protel 98 PCB file avaliable for anyone who may wish to make The adaptor.

EEPROM.zip
Author: Peter M

Description: Here is a another ingenious use for the development board from a person who had purchased the PIC Development Board ver 2.10 and has created a PCB to fit into the 40 pin socket so he is able to Read / Write data to the 24LC16B EEPROM without having to do it throught the PIC.
the adaptor is Ideal to preload lookup tables or read back stored data. A number of IC-Prog supported I2C Serial EEPROMS may be programmed using the onboard parallel port programmer of the Development board using the adaptor.
Peter M has made the single sided PCB file freely avaliable without restriction for anyone who may wish to make The adaptor.

scrolllcd.zip

Description: This is sample source code (ASM file) and the HEX file used to scroll a message on the 16x2 LCD module of our PIC Development board.

cracker.zip
Author: Microbyte Electronics

Description: Remember the old Master Mind Game with the colour Pegs. The first person put in a colour sequence and the second person had to guess the colour sequence. This program is the Electronic version used on the PIC Development board (version 2.00) using the keypad and the LCD. The first person enters a six character code and then the second person tries to enter the correct code within 20 tries, When a correct character is entered for the sequence the X underneath that character will change to that character, But will revert back to an X if a wrong character is pressed for that position. This program is work in progress but is currently working, So give it a try. Have Fun!!

crackerII.zip
Author: Microbyte Electronics

Description: A final and revised version of the Code Cracker Game.
Developed on the development board ver2.10, the code has been rewritten to make it easier to follow and a little harder to play (only 10 guesses). Connection details are within the text file. The first person enters a six character code and then the second person tries to enter the correct code within 10 tries, When a correct character is entered for the sequence the X underneath that position will change to that character, But will revert back to an X if a wrong character is pressed for that position.

put1.zip

Description: This is the source code (ASM file) and the HEX file used for the Universal timer project .

Alarm1.zip
Author: Microbyte Electronics

Description: This is the source code (ASM file) and the HEX file that was written for a student project of a 2 input alarm system with keypad pin enter/exit function, one delayed and 1 instant alarm input. There are 3 outputs to drive a buzzer which is activated the instatntly when the delayed input is triggerd to notify you to enter the PIN to disarm, if the correct pin is not entered within a period of time the second ouput to connect to a siren driver output will become active, if after another period of time the correct pin is not enetred the third output becomes active to activate a device like a phone dialer. messages are displayed on the LCD Module. connection details are decscribed in the ASM source Code.

Description: This is an extract from The development board manual regarding the setup of ICProg with windows 2000 / Xp. This setup procedure may be used with any of the ICPROG supported programmers as the documentation refers to the installation and setup of the I/O Driver required for windows 2000 / Xp.
