by : Walt Pyle, Alan Spivak, Reynaldo Cortez, and Jim Healy A gas fed battery that never needs recharging! This article describes a process for building a fuel cell using tools and techniques any skilled hobbyist with a wellequipped shop can duplicate. The fuel cell that we built can produce direct current electricity from stored [...]

Programming the PIC Microcontroller
Program Execution The chip has 8 k (8096 x 14 bits) of flash ROM program memory, which has to be programmed via the serial programming pins PGM, PGC, and PGD. The fixed-length instructions contain both the operation code and operand (immediate data, register address, or jump address). The mid-range PIC has a limited number of [...]

Tutorial of PROGRAMMING THE ATmega16
Programming the ATmega16 requires several hardware and software tools. We briefly mention required components here. Please refer to the manufacturer’s documentation for additional details. Software tools: Throughout the text, we use the ImageCraft ICC AVR compiler. This is an excellent, user-friendly compiler. There are other excellent compilers available.The compiler is used to translate the source [...]
