2. Embedded Systems What is Embedded System? Embedded System is a combination of software and hardware designed to perform a specific task . E.g. Washing Machine Traffic Signal Microwave Oven etc…

3. Application Areas Of Embedded System Electronics Applications and Consumer Devices. Industrial Automation and Process Control. Access Control Systems. Security Systems. Robotics. Communications Applications. Automotive and Avionics Systems. Military and Aerospace Applications. Bio Medical Applications etc….

4. Processing Parts Of Embedded System 1: Microprocessor ( μ p) Microprocessor is the Central Processing Unit. Microprocessor is, just simply, the processor . To make it to work it will need lots of external parts called peripherals. I.e. Microprocessor don’t have inbuilt peripherals. Micro processor needs many external circuits to make it work. So Microprocessor based system is called System On Board (SOB )

5. Processing Parts Of Embedded System cont… 2: Microcontroller ( μ c ) Microcontroller is the processing part in which all the essential peripherals are integrated in a single chip Microcontroller = Microprocessor + Peripherals It can process as well as control. It includes all the necessary parts in one IC. So microcontroller based system is called System On Chip (SOC)

6. Microcontroller Manufactures

7. Microchip’s PIC The name PIC referred to "Peripheral Interface Controller" PIC is a family of Harvard Architecture microcontrollers made by Microchip Technology. Microchip Technology is an American manufacturer of microcontroller, memory and analog semiconductors. The company was founded in 1987. For more details log on to www.microchip.com PICs are popular with developers and hobbyists alike.

8. Why PIC All the Peripherals are Integrated in a Single Chip Wide Range Available Cost Effective Easily Available High Speed High Performance RISC CPU Instruction Set Simplicity Wide Operating Voltage Range: 2.5 – 6 V Programmable Code Protection Mode Power Saving Sleep Mode

9. Device Structure - PIC Core The essential part of the system. Peripherals Peripherals are the features that add a differentiation from microprocessors. This is the interfacing units to external world. Special features Major purpose of special features are ► Decrease system cost. ► Increase system reliability. ► Increase design flexibility.

10. The PIC Family Based on Instruction Word Length PIC can be classified into three. Instruction Word Length = OPCODE+OPERAND Base Line (12 bit with 33 Instructions) Mid Range (14 bit with 35 Instructions) High End (16 bit with 58 / 77 Instructions)

11. Architectures … 1:Von Neumann Architecture Program Memory & Data Memory Used in: 80X86, 8051 etc… Only one bus between CPU and memory. Data memory and Program memory share the same bus and the same memory, and so must have the same bit width. Time of execution high. 8 CPU

12. Architectures … 2:Harvard Architecture PICs use the Harvard Architecture Used mostly in RISC CPUs. Separate program bus and data bus: can be different widths. Instructions can execute in a single cycle. Time of execution is low. CPU 12 14 16 Data Memory 8 Program Memory

13. Name the PIC Microchips Microcontroller name always Starts with PIC Then a Number which denotes the Type/Range of that PIC 12 : Base Line (12 bit Instruction Word) 16 : Mid Range (14 bit Instruction Word) 17/18 : High End (16 bit Instruction Word) Next is an Alphabet which denotes How We Can Program the PIC CR : PROM (OTP) C : PROM / EPROM F : FLASH Last is another Number varies from PIC to PIC which denotes the internal memory, pin numbers, peripherals etc … 73 : 28 pin IC, 8 bit ADC, 4K PM etc… 873 : 28 pin IC, 10 bit ADC, 4K PM etc… 877 : 40pin IC, 10 bit ADC , 8K PM etc… 877 A : 40pin IC, 10 bit ADC , 8K PM, New Batch IC etc…

14. Name Yourself …….You can  PIC16F73 :  PIC16F873A :  PIC16F877 :  PIC16F877A : 

15. Instruction Set - PIC Only 35 instructions. RISC instruction architecture. In PIC, Accumulator is named as Working Register (w). This is the base register of all operations. All operations are possible only through ‘w’ Register to register transfer is not possible. The instruction set is highly orthogonal and is grouped into three basic categories: Byte oriented instructions (18 nos). Bit oriented instructions (4 nos). Literal and control instructions (13 nos).

16. Instruction Set - PIC Byte oriented instructions: (18 nos) CLRW - Clear working register. CLRF - Clear file register MOVFW - Move the contents of file register to working register. MOVWF - Move the contents of working register to file register. ADDWF - Add the contents of file register to working register. SUBWF - Subtract working register from the file register. ANDWF - Bit wise multiplication of working register with the file register. IORWF - Bit wise adding of working register with the file register. XORWF - Exclusive OR the contents of working register with the file reg: RLF - Rotate left with carry. RRF - Rotate right with carry. DECF - Decrement the file registers contents. DECFSZ - Decrement the contents of file register and skip the next instruction if zero. INCF - Increment the file registers contents. INCFSZ - Increment the contents of file register and skip the next instruction if zero. COMF - 1’s complement. SWAPF - Interchange the nibbles. NOP - No operation.

17. Instruction Set - PIC Bit Oriented instructions: (4 nos) BCF - Bit clear flag. BSF - Bit set flag. BTFSC - Bit test file register and skip if clear. BTFSS - Bit test file register and skip if set.

18. Instruction Set - PIC Literal and control instructions: (13 nos) MOVLW - Direct loading of working register. ADDLW - Direct adding of working register with a constant value. SUBLW - Direct subtraction of working register with a constant value. ANDLW - Bit wise multiplication of working register with a constant value. IORLW - Bit wise addition of working register with a constant value. XORLW - Exclusive OR of working register with a constant value. CALL XX - Call subroutine XX. RETURN - Back to main program from the subroutine. GOTO XX - Go to xx. RETFIE - Return from interrupts. RETLW - Return with literal value. CLRWDT - Clear watchdog timer. SLEEP - Low power consumption mode.

19. Program Format LIST P=PIC16F73 ;Listing the microcontroller #INCLUDE“P16F73.INC” ;INC file CBLOCK 0X20 ;GPR address starts from 0X20 ;GPR Initialization ENDC ORG 0 ;Reset Vector program END ;Program End

20. Our First Program …  Add the contents of two registers (R1 & R2) and store the result in R3 LIST P=PIC16F73 #INCLUDE“P16F73.INC” CBLOCK 0X20 R1 R2 R3 END C ORG 0 MOVLW 0X02 MOVWF R1 MOVLW 0X03 MOVWF R2 ADDWF R1,0 MOVWF R3 END

21. Do it yourself … Subtract the contents of M1 from M2 and store the result in Y1 Multiply the contents of X1 with X2 and store the result in X3.

22. Its time to relax ….. Have a break… 

23. MPLAB IDE …An Introduction MPLAB IDE is a software program that runs on a PC, to develop applications for Microchip microcontrollers. It is called an Integrated Development Environment, or IDE, because it provides a single integrated “environment” to develop code for PIC microcontrollers. You can download this software free of cost from Microchip’s website. (www.microchip.com)
