Trying to Learn Pic Micro Programming

[VicBSEE]

Hi,

I am an Electrical Engineer that has always just done Analog, RF and Power Supplies since graduation. However, I find myself wanting to learn how to program, but where I work, we don't do any programming, because we outsource it to a consultant.

Since I have always worked in places that use Pic Micros, I would like to start learning with them. Any ideas of where can I begin? I am almost overwhelmed by the vast amounts of information out there, however I am not sure where to begin.

Any suggestions? Ideas? I am considering getting the following development board:

MikroElektronika - EasyPIC6 Development System - PIC Development Board

The first project that I want to do is to create a 70kHz 30% DC signal using the PIC12F683, since I have a few of them right now.

Any suggestions/ideas are welcome.

Thank you

Victor C.

It seems like you are going to use one of the compilers from MikroElektronika. If you are interested in using MikroC, these tutorials might be helpful.
