datasheet for PIC 16F627p

[banzaicorp]

hi guy...
need help to get datasheet for PIC 16F27P for my line follower robot. It is for my final project.
tq...

Then download it from MicroChips website.

the p at the end is not part of the name of the chip. it is used to say the mounting method.

A quick google quickly and easily comes up with the result : Microchip Pic16f627

thanx...but i still have a few questions..
1st,what the differences between PIC 16F627p,PIC 16F627 and PIC 16F627A?can i use the same programming for all of them?

 

[Nigel Goodwin]

Basically yes, the 627 and 627a are very slightly different, just select the correct option in your programmer software. As already mentioned, p is just the case type.

i still don't get it...i'm really not a coding guy....can u at least show me a sample of programming for a line follower robot...almost got headache juz thinking about this...

 

[Nigel Goodwin]

I've never done a line follower, and any code (in any language) would be entirely dependent on the exact hardware used.

Why don't you just look on google?

Here's one example (but in C18): **broken link removed**

already googling n achieve nothing....yes,there are some example,but it using different PIC from what i use...really need guide and an example line follower robot programming that using PIC 16F627...

You should start with something more basic like flashing an LED before you get into more complex projects. What language are you planning to use?

PS most line followers don't use a MCU, they are simple state machines.

 

[banzaicorp]

im planning to use MpLab...but how?maybe this is a silly question,but i dont understand what is PS?

 

[blueroomelectronics]

PS = Please See
It's used when you may have additional possibly important info to add to a message or note.

You might get more help if you start a thread in the robotics section with a proper title.

Sorry to have to correct you Bill, but in this context PS means Post Script, from the Latin, Post = After and Script = Writing.

another q is what is MCU?

 

[3lectrokid]

MCU Stands for Micro-Controller Unit

Edit: have a look here for a line following robot which i think uses a pic16f627: Line Following robot-failurebot
