Lab 2
You should be familiar with making a circuit schematic and PCB design in PCB Artist.
In this lab you will practice interfacing your NU32 PIC32 board to simple circuits.
The goal of this lab is to design and breadboard a circuit that reads an analog voltage from a potentiometer and constantly outputs the value of the voltage on the LCD. When a push button, external to your NU32 PIC32 board, is pressed, the PIC sends the value of the voltage at that moment to a PC via an RS232 to USB cable.
Work out this lab in steps:
- Get a potentiometer and a push button and practice PIC32MX: Digital Inputs and PIC32MX: Analog Inputs.
- Get an LCD and follow the instructions on PIC32MX: Parallel LCD to write a program to control it.
- Follow the instructions at PIC32MX: RS232 and write a program that sends a message to a PC over the RS232 to USB cable in your group box.
