RC7 on PIC16F876(A)
PostPosted: Sat Dec 30, 2006 4:36 pm     Reply with quote
Hi to all,

I can't use the RC7 pin as output. I know it's multiplexed with serial RX but when the SPEN is 0 it should work as output.

Here is the code:

Code:

#include <16f876a.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, PUT,NOPROTECT,BROWNOUT,NOLVP,NOCPD,NOWRT,NODEBUG
#use delay(clock = 16000000, RESTART_WDT)
#use fast_io(c)
#byte  rcsta = 0x18

void main() {
set_tris_c(0x00);
rcsta = 0x00;

output_high(PIN_C7);
for (;;) {}


There is no hardware connected to the PIC. Other pins works fine and the oscillator runs.

May anyone help me?

Normally the Rx pin on the PIC is connected to the output of a
MAX232-type chip. The output of the MAX232's receive section
may conflict with the using pin C7 as an output.
What external circuit or chip is connected to pin C7 ?

Also, did you post your complete test program ? It's missing the
closing brace of main(). Is there more ? Is there a #use rs232()
statement in your program ?

What is your compiler version ?

Hi,

I forgot the closing brace when I did copy&paste. There are no other code and on the board there are only the PIC, the oscillator section (16 MHz crystal and two 22pF capacitor) and a 100 nF bypass capacitor on power supply.

I don't need any serial communication, just digital output on Port C.
My compiler version is: 3.6.0.99

I wish you a happy new year Smile

I solved! There was a short on the board Evil or Very Mad

I'm sorry for the useless thread Embarassed

However, thanks for the support
