It turns out that the TCP/IP MDD Demo given by Microchip is not that useful. It mainly redefined all the functions to open webpages stored in SD cards instead. They did not modify the part where the original used to upload a file.But a file named “FileSystem.c” is particularly useful Read more
The PICDEM.NET 2 has a stand-alone Ethernet controller, ENC28J60 but the project is not going to use that stand-alone Ethernet controller. The project will use the Ethernet driver for the PIC18F97J60, which is the ETH97J60. It is interesting to note that the PICDEM.NET 2 has two Integrated Connector Modules (ICMs), Read more
I continued working on the task with the SD cards. I first tested out the read and write example code in Microchip’s manual on Implementing File I/O Functions Using Microchip’s Memory Disk Drive File System Library (AN1045). The code can be found on page 10 on the manual. The files that I Read more
I came to the office on 25th June, I was introduced by Dr. Shawn around the office and how to login to the computer I will be working on for this week. And after some tutorials by him, I was able to login to the computer and access all the Read more
My HDMI transmitter is taking way too long to finish with no one to blame but myself. In this post I’ll describe the general structure of my HDMI transmitter. First, at the core lies the encoder. The encoder is the module that encodes the video, audio and control commands into Read more
They say the first week is always the hardest. At the start of my second week, I was supposed to get the computer to read and write into an SD card by programming the PIC18F8722. After being on the receiving end of the massive scolding last week, I was being Read more
