| How to configure IOC on PIC16F917 |
 Posted: Mon Mar 21, 2011 5:22 am |

Hi,
I'm a PIC newbie and have been given a circuit and asked to write the software.
I need to recognise a High (5v) on either RB6 and RB7, provided by a momentary push button switch. Then run code dependant upon which button is switch.
I have tried all the examples i can find on configuring the interrupts and can't seem to get it to work.
One obvious problem is that I'm unable to use pullups on port B as I need to trigger on a high.
Any pointers would be most welcome. |

Without seeing the code you wrote it's very hard to tell you what's wrong !
Could be your hardware setup, could be software...
Wrong or missing pulldown resistors, power supply incorrect,defective switches, bad wiring, just to start...
Sounds like you want a low-to-high interrupt. you will need debouncing on the pushbuttons.
The example that CCS supplies will work,the help file has an FAQ section. |

But you control the source code. You can use positive logic or negative
logic. The C language is completely flexible with respect to that.
Here is the normal way to connect a push-button switch to a PIC:
| Code: |
+5v
|
<
> 4.7K
< ___ Push button switch
To | _|_|_
PIC -----------------o o------
pin |
--- GND
-
|
However, sometimes on PIC hobby websites, you will see it wired the
opposite way. When you press the switch, it connects the +5v Vdd voltage
to the PIC pin. I suspect you are looking at one of those websites.
This thread has links to several push-button switch example programs:

Thanks guys.
\My code is below
| Code: |
#include <16F917.h>

#FUSES NOPROTECT //Code not protected from reading
#FUSES MCLR //Master Clear pin enabled
#FUSES NOCPD //No EE protection
#FUSES NOBROWNOUT //No brownout reset
#FUSES IESO //Internal External Switch Over mode enabled
#FUSES FCMEN //Fail-safe clock monitor enabled
#FUSES NODEBUG //No Debug mode for ICD

{
//b6 went High

{

//dbutton6=0;

}
if(dbutton7)
{
output_bit(PIN_D0,0);
output_bit(PIN_D1,1);
output_bit(PIN_D2,1);
output_bit(PIN_D3,0);
output_bit(PIN_D4,0);
output_bit(PIN_D5,1);
output_bit(PIN_D6,1);
output_bit(PIN_D7,0);
//dbutton7=0;
delay_ms( 1000 ) ;
}
}
}

All that happens is two 7 seg displays output figures dependant upon which switch is depressed( RB6 or RB7). Unfortunatly the hardware switches +5v 
There are no pull down resistors on the inputs. However, scoping the pind RB6 and RB7 the levels look good. But I will try to place some pull downs on the lines and report back with my findings.

| Just one further question; what size pull downs would you suggest? 4k7 as per pull ups? |

I have downloaded the real pic simulator to aid my getting to the bottom of this issue.
Using this configured for a PIC16F917, I can't get any of the examples I have seen to work.
Is there a ccs compiling issue for this PIC?
Does anyone have any ideas how I can get an int_rb interrupt to work with this PIC? I have now pulled down my 2 ports using a 10k res (still no joy). But seeing the simulator also doesn't work I guess that it must be a software issue.
Please help  |
