Wow.. can you believe it?! I managed to write two компютриPIC24 tutorial pieces in a week!

To tell you the true, the river levels are coming down and I haven’t been kayaking too much. I guess it’s good in a why because there’s so many article I want to write, but just can’t find the time!

Anyways, I posted another section on the I2C tutorial, this time detailing the functions for sequential read and sequential write. The last part of the tutorial should be up next week, where I will dissect an example to show how the I2C can work in a real application.

So finally another section of the PIC tutorial is finished. The I2C basic functions, which so many of you have been waiting for, has been finished. The tutorial contains basic functions needed for I2C communications, but no examples as of yet. I’ll put those up in Part 3 of the I2C tutorial.

Most of you should be able to figure out the rest (ie, how to use the functions), but I’ll eventually put up an example so that it’s easier to understand.

I recently purchased a Project 52 from Mike Mathwin. The guy’s like a legend around the DC paddling community or something. He use to paddle for Wavesport I believe, and does all sorts of crazy freestyle stuff.

Anyways, my Pyranah S6F is gonna be a really big paper weight now. Ahh.. the memories.

In other news, all that rain over the weekend has made the Potomac surge to flood level, which tempts me to go kayaking. Take a look at the Little Falls gauge! The little red line indicates the flood stage.

Well I’ve gotten a few requests for the I2C, and my lack of updating has caused some people to become irate. So, here it is, part 1 of the I2C. The I2C is significantly more complex than any of the sections in the tutorial, so it’s probably going to be split up in a few sections. I’ll update with part 2, hopefully within the week. Part 1 is just an overview of the I2C bus. You gotta crawl before you walk right?
