Enhanced Mid-Range PIC tutorials

Enhanced mid-range (14-bit) PIC architecture and peripherals, using C (XC8) and assembly language

These lessons are intended for new students and do not assume any prior knowledge of other PIC families.

One set of lessons introduces the enhanced mid-range (14-bit) PIC architecture and peripherals, using assembly language.
A second set of lessons shows how to program enhanced mid-range PICs in C, using the Microchip XC8 compilers - and without having to learn assembly language first.

Migration lessons are also provided for those who have completed the baseline and mid-range tutorials, highlighting the new features of the enhanced mid-range architecture without repeating many of the earlier explanations.

To get the most out of these lessons, you should consider the Baseline and Mid-Range PIC training board (which was designed to complement these tutorial series), instead of purchasing these tutorials separately.

Additional enhanced mid-range PIC lessons will made available as free downloads to purchasers of these tutorials, as they become available.

The following lessons are currently included:
