This part writes to the TRIS registers, making them all inputs, but it's a really confusing and poor disassembly.

Code: 
0013: 1683  BSF    3,5    
0014: 30FF  MOVLW  0FFh
0015: 0085  MOVWF  5
0016: 0086  MOVWF  6

hi everyone, problem solved! i connected a wire from the pic's vdd pin to the connector's vdd and it worked. it was kind of a desperate measure, but it worked. now i have another problem hahaha i extracted an hex file from the pic's memory (which i converted to asm, and doing the best to understand how it works) but i don't know where to get information regarding pin configuration. on the hex file i extracted from the pic it doesn't appear...

Didn't you had readed what i wrote before ?

THE ORIGINAL ICD2 NEEDS THE VDD PIN CONNECTED TO TARGET TO POWER THE INTERNAL BUFFER.
Thats why.

Pin configurations are under that same topic on you PIC DATASHEET ! Bit configurations are regarding digital/analogic i/o and things like that, is that what you want ?

Tip:
If you're planning on using ASM use you PIC datasheet PORT initialization examples, wich usually change if the PIC has an ADC or PWM modules on the same ports.

But you are probably refering to BIT CONFIGURATIONS, MPLAB has a dedicated area, wich you should use, until you understaind how to use #pragma config 'BIT' 'STATE'.

I suggest programming in C :p, of course i'm a programmer.

Oh, forgive me my grammar errors!

Another tip:
Disable the Watchdog and the Low Voltage Programming to make the ICD2 work in debug mode. (i guess thats it)

Have fun!
 
bit 5 and 6 would be inputs? any advice to do a better disassembly? I'm kind of lost with this code. i can send you the hex file if you prefer

Use windows calculator (if you have windows) to convert decimal/hexadecimal numbers to decimal/binary hehehehe

Then on binary:
the 1s on TRIS are inputs, 0s are outputs.

This is easy when you know where to look!

No, like I said ALL pins will be inputs, 5 and 6 are the numerical values of the TRIS registers in bank 1.

What specific processor is it for?.
 
all pins will be inputs? all pins of the pic? all pins of a certain port?

this pic is mounted on a pcb board along with a lattice fpga device, they control the duty cycle of a motor. from pins 18 and 19 (RC1 and RC2 - PIC16f877 plcc) you get a 50% and a 25% duty cycle respectively (i have checked this with an oscilloscope). the thing is, that i want to understand how the program works because i want to add to more outputs, one with 75% and another with 100% duty cycle.

Like L said, ALL pins are set as inputs - they may be altered later on though.

Post the HEX file (as an attachment, click 'Go Advanced'), and I'll disassemble it for you.

RC1 and RC2 are the two PWM output pins, this is a hardware function of the chip, and ONLY on those two pins.

BTW, you don't need a pn for 100% duty cycle, just feed it from 5V.

so, the 25% and 50% are a function of the pic device? i know that these are PWM outputs, but then the duty cycles are (according to the program) in no way controlled by the pic? the pic already comes with those %s?

No, it's set in the PIC program - which is very small and does nothing except set the two PWM's running and then sits in an endless loop.

so, the program that was in the pic device has nothing to do with the fact that there is a 25% and 50% duty cycle? if i want to generate a 75% i would have to create it separately?
 
Not actually generating it, but it sets up the hardware that does generate it, in the subroutine labelled Label_0003 in my listing.

If you wanted to write software routines to generate two more PWM signals, you could place it at Label_0004 which is the routine called in the main loop.
 
what i mean, is that what "i" control through the pic program is the %duty cycle of the outputs. for example, i could change the 25% for a 75%... but these outputs are one of the pic's functions, what i, as a user decide is the %, right?

(sorry for being so slow to understand...)

Read the datasheet about the PWM modules, or the mid-range reference manual - or check my PWM 'tutorial' which has a commented example.

But basically you set it with the value in CCPRIL and CCPR2L.
 
hi, a have a few questions regarding the how you disassembled the code
