Re: Has my PIC blown?



Hello there all again

Ok then, I am using MPLAB IDE 5.62 and PICSTART Plus Development
Programmer.

I have some succes, thank you very much, to all of you.

What I have got is:
Configuration Bits:
- Oscilator: XT
- Watchdog Timer: Off
- Power Up Timer: On
- Code Protect: Off

Pin 4 MCLR I have attached to the output of the voltage regulator via a
4.7K ohms resistor.
Pin 5 to ground
Pin 14 to the output of the voltage regulator.
Pin 15 and 16 to the oscilator. Oscilator middle pin is to ground.
Pin 17 to cathode of LED via a 270 ohms resisitor.

I haven't put the capacitors on the input and output of the voltage
regulator yet. Are these put on to keep the voltage smooth in and out
of the voltage regulator?

I have changed the code slightly too, so that PORTA and PORTB bits are
all set to 1 and I change PortA Bit0 to a 0 to turn on my LED.

Next step is for me to attach another LED and get it to flash every so
often.

Thank you very much again for your help.
Richard
