Hi guys,

I am trying to integrate an accelerometer with a 12F683 as well as an RGB LED.

The projects outcome is when the accelerometer is twisted on an axis (say x between 0-360 degrees) the RGB LED changes color in accordance with the accelerometer from all colors of the spectrum.

I have located the cheapest accelerometer for the project (I am assuming this is the cheapest and fairly easy to use):

My first question is since I have struggled to find any information on this topic is how to change the RGB LED from say blue all the way to red? Must I use a PIC with 3 CCPs?

Can you guys suggest any thing to help me?

Mannie.

There is a routine in the Code Library for this:
