Easy USB HID example for the PIC18F14K50 Breakout Board in Mikroelektronika’s mikroC

From http://www.tautic.com/easy-usb-hid-example-for-the-pic18f14k50-breakout-board-in-mikroelektronikas-mikroc

In this article we’re going to explore creating a simple sample for getting the PIC18F14K50 USB Breakout Board up and running as a USB HID device. Unlike last time, we’ll be using MikroElektronika’s mikroC PRO for PIC (version 4.60.0.0). In this example we won’t be using Microchip’s USB HID Bootloader, but rather programming the board directly with a programmer.  I’ll be using the PICkit 3.

I like mikroC for a few reasons. The IDE itself is a pleasure to use, and I find many of the included libraries to be extremely helpful and very usable. Comparing this to other C compilers, I believe most people who are just getting started with microcontrollers and or C will find this compiler one of the easiest to use.

In this example, we’re using the USB library which will allow us to get our sample running in a very minimum number of lines of code which are also extremely easy to read. There are a few details along the way specific to the PIC18F14K50 so be sure to pay close attention.

Project files and code for this tutorial can be downloaded here: mikroC USB HID on PIC18F14K50.zip

Programming dsPIC DSCs in PASCAL: Free Ebook

From: http://www.mikroe.com/en/books/dspicbook/mikropascal/

Learn how to write your own program, debug it, and use it to start the microcontroller. We have provided plenty of practical examples with necessary connection schematics: temperature sensors, AD and DA converters, LCD and LED displays, relays, communications, and the book is constantly being updated with fresh examples. All code is commented in details to make it easier for beginners. Instruction set, operators, control structures, and other elements of PASCAL are thoroughly explained with many examples. Also, the book includes a useful appendix on mikroPascal for dsPIC development environment: how to install it and how to use it to its full potential.
