PIC Micro Controller C Input / Output Routine

LED dimmer. Software PWM, A2D from Potentiometer. Written in CCS C

Andre Abelian [aabelian@mason-electric.com]

I needed software PWM and I used Scott Dattalo's software PWM idea and I can tell he is a genus. The test I did on my demo board I only had 2 leds and 1 pot. The pot is dimming one of the led and the other PWM is fixed number entered manually before compiling. The resolution is 10 bit and the result is excellent. see attachment file. It is written in CCS C. Note that there are some extra unused stuff. I am using timer 0 interrupt. Also thanks to CCS for making nice compiler.
