ohh nostalgia. I remember using it on a project in college. I still remember the pic f16877a. Just to learn we did tests with LEDs, a project with a traffic light and finally a calculator.
It was difficult because we didn't know anything and whenever we worked with hardware we broke something, even through inexperience we burned the pics, we had a cemetery of pics.
We also programmed them in C and used the Proteus emulator.
It was fun and frustrating because we started from scratch and the teacher gave us 0 information. He only dedicated himself to selling us the pieces. Then never worked with it. I stayed with web programming
Hi Gregor! Oh that's an interesting story! 😄 I actually bought a voltmeter to make sure I don't destroy anything and then felt like the doc from back to the future. 😄 Great that you had fun anyway. 😊
We only use a 5v phone charger, but when we removed the pic to program it, we made a mistake and put it either the other way around or wrong. At the first test we realized that it was not working and it was too late, this happened many times 🤣
is it still in fashion? was not replaced by Arduino? 🤔
Hehe you learn with each mistake. :) I think arduino is a popular Microcontroller at least that's the one I found when looking e.g. For tutorials. I used the Elegoo though cause it was available with a set for a good price. 😊

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
