The first thing to do is flash LEDs, as you mentioned. Have a look at http://www.piclist.org/techref/piclist/cheapic/bincnt.htm . There's a very simple program that counts the LEDs in binary. It also contains a nice description of the various registers. Wherever you see 16f84, replace it with 16f876, and it should work. All 16 series chips have the same instruction set. The differences are in what I/O devices are on the chip. Good luck! Harold > I am just starting to understand programming of PIC's.
