Overview:

In this project you will learn to use a basic functionality of chipKIT board, which is to use serial communication I2C bus to read and write values from EEPROM memory. I2C bus is a master slave bus, which communicates data from the processor on chipKIT board to other peripherals. More description on I2C communication can be found on the Wikipedia website and on EEPROM can be found here. The configuration is done though MPLAB X IDE.

Hardware Used:

To do the serial communication project, you require the following

Overview:

In this project you will learn to use a basic functionality of chipKIT board in MPLAB X IDE, which is to read an analog value and output the corresponding digital reading for it. A potentiometer is a  three-terminal resistor with a sliding contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider. Using a potentiometer measuring instrument, you could measure the electric potential. In this example we use the potentiometer in the chipKIT Basic IO shield. Find the same project using MPIDE here.

Hardware Used:

To do the analog read project, you require the following hardware

OVERVIEW:

Here is a fairly basic robot application that implements a line following algorithm. This application uses off the shelf components along with a very basic chassis built from common materials. This could be a good weekend project. The Line-Follower chassis for this Demo was constructed with 2½" wide by ¼" thick poplar project wood purchased at a local home improvement center. Note that a box was also created to house the battery holder.

HARDWARE USED

Overview:

In this project you will learn to use a basic functionality of chipKIT board, which is to use serial communication I2C bus to measure the room temperature and output the corresponding digital reading for it. I2C bus is a master slave bus, which communicates data from the processor on chipKIT board to other peripherals. More description on I2C communication can be found on the Wikipedia website.

Hardware Used:

The hardware used in this tutorial will be a chipKIT Uno32 along with a chipKIT Basic I/O Shield both manufactured by Digilent Inc.
