STEVE Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I am looking to build the PIC diode tester described on the site. I would like to expand the project to test more than one diode at once. Looking at the schematic it looks like it uses 4 outputs and 1 input from the 16F84. Looking at the datasheet for this PIC, I could expand it to test 2 diodes at once as the PIC16F84 has 8 outputs and 5 inputs. Although I would like to test more than two diodes at once, are there any PICs out there that have more outputs and inputs? I could just use a bunch of PICs but I think it would be a neater solution if I could just use one or two PICs.Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE Posted October 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 Any one have any experience with PICs? I want to test 16 diodes at once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP Posted October 7, 2006 Report Share Posted October 7, 2006 Any one have any experience with PICs? Yes.Try posting your PIC questions in the microcontroller area. You aren't really discussing the diode tester project, so you are in the wrong area.MP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
