Well to be honest even me don't know why i am having such troubles using this RTC while i already used it successfully in the past. But there are big differences with what i did in the past and now. In the past i used a custom made SPI library which uses commands like PORTX.F1=1 etc to generates all...

To Sparky Right now i don't have a oscilloscope to see if the SPI signals are OK. About the what my LCD is showing, right now i just want to be sure that my SPI is working properly after that i will focus on interpreting the data that comes out of the RTC. You mention something about MSSP logic can ...

Thanks for the comment Sparky you are right. But unfortunatly i am still getting only 0 on my LCD. But we are at least one step closer to solving the problem. Below here my updated code: // LCD module connections sbit LCD_RS at RB4_bit; sbit LCD_EN at RB5_bit; sbit LCD_D4 at RB0_bit; sbit LCD_D5 at ...

I am using a PIC887. I just double checked my SPI connections they are OK. SDI with SDO, for both RTC and PIC. i also disconnected the pull down/up resistor selector but still i see only 0 on my LCD.

To bpislife There is always a small delay between the CE and the SCLK. According to the datasheet this should be a minimum of 1 us (using 5V as power supply). I have lower my delays between the CE and the SCLK and remove the delay between the SPI writes but i still see 0 on my LCD. Regarding my PIC ...

Thank you for your answer bpislife

Can i assume that my code is correct seeing the fact that you asked me for my connection drawing? I am using EasyPic 6 and an external breadboard to connect my RTC.

Any help will be welcome

Hi fellow programmers I just started with a project that consist of reading from a DS1305 RTC. I know that my code will not give me the correct readings from the register i am trying to read from but i just want to be sure that my phisical connections are OK so i can focus on the software. Below her...

Hi Matiko The best approach to your problem is to use a IC that is build especially for your purpose which is energy monitoring. It gives you active, reactive,apparent energy, Voltage and current of 3 phases and it is fairy easy to use. You can use like ADE7758, if you are comfortable using SPI then...

I just realize that i posted my questions inside the wrong forum. I would like to receive help in using MikroC Pro version.

You still did not say what you want to achieve. It will be very difficult for anyone to help you if you don't explain what you want to do.

Hi

Please be more specific with what you want to achieve. Do you want to measure a voltage? What kind of output are you using? What is the resolution of the ADC that you want to use?

No i did not enable the library now it is working fine. I find it strange that i have to initialize the library both inside he code and inside the compiler.

Do you know by any chance why?

Hi there I have some experience with MikroC 8.2 but i am new with MikroC Pro. Recently i tried to combine the ADC on LED example with the LCD example to be able to read the the ADC counts on the LCD. It sounds pretty easy but yet i am having trouble with the line " ADC_Read(2) " . It gives me the er...

Hi i have a library that can send information using the UDP protocol. It works flawlessly but the Usart part you need to do it on your own.
