does anybody have good resouce to learn programming PIC ...? based on good knowledge of PIC architecture ...

Also I have 6 years expereince in Visual Basic 6.0 Programming ...but I want to start from zero and get from Assembly ...

Hi,

There's plenty of material out there in Internet. Just use google. One I'd like to point out is mikroelektronika's nicely illustrated book: https://www.mikroe.com/en/books/picmcubook/ . Good thing about this book (besides being online free) is it focuses on fairly new pic - PIC16f887.

They also have this older book based on pic16f84: https://www.mikroe.com/en/books/picbook/picbook.htm

First decide on a small project, use the asm template files that is included in MPLAB to set up your workspace. First you should try to toggle some LED's on/off at different intervals, then add a switch to toggle them. After that you can start adding things like ADC conversions etc.
In the beginning I found that searching for .asm files on the web to see more or less how things are done by aothers helped allot. The Microchip website also has allot of source files/templates and tutorials that you can try.
