hy, i just start a project with PIC16F877A,
and for start i want to make a tachometer.
The input is on AN0 and the output is on a 16X2 display.
Can you help me?
I would be interested to have put everything in a project library for the project is more comprehensive with more modules.

That topic has been discussed in this forum numerous times. I would recommend using the search feature to get your class project going. |

Right, but he doesn't want to use the CCP for this. I recommended that
he start a new thread for that. (Didn't guarantee there would be a solution). |

Describe the signal that you want to measure. What is the frequency ?
What is the duty cycle ? What is the amplitude ? What are the peak to
peak voltages ? (low and high). Is it a rectangular waveform or is it
a sine wave, etc. ? |

What about the frequency and duty cycle ?
Also, your picture is cut off on the left side. I can't see the complete
input circuit. |

I think it can be done. The PicBasic Pro manual has the COUNT command
which can test any pin for the frequency of an input signal. See page 64
in the Acrobat reader for the the COUNT command :
http://www.melabs.com/downloads/pbpm108.pdf
It gives the limits of the frequency range that it can accept. You could
write an ASM routine in a CCS program and duplicate the function of the
PicBasic Pro COUNT command. |
