Welcome to the PICEBS2 wiki
If you don't know what the PICEBS2 project is, have a look a the presentation.
Presentation
PICEBS2 (hardware details) is the name of a small embedded computer board targeted at teaching embedded system programming. As it's name suggests, it's the second iteration of a successful family of Microchip PIC board, this time focused on a stronger system.
As a student, you can loan a board during your Hes-so//Valais studing process ;-) Just ask the laboratory responsible Pascal Sartoretti (sap).
We, the PICEBS2 team, provide a comprehensive solution for
- Practical work for HEI courses Information systems
- All kind of project featuring a low-sized micro-controller.
What can be done with the PICEBS2 ?
The board is powerful enough to run applications with:
- LCD and touch screen interface
- Serial port usage (UART)
- CAN interface
- ...
- This board includes the PICKIT3 for programming and debugging

CPU speed control
// to work with maximum CPU speed (64MHz) insert following code at start. PLLEN = 1; // activate PLL x4 OSCCON = 0b01110000; // for 64MHz cpu clock (default is 8MHz) ...
Change one bit on a port
// to change one bit on a port, use LATx and not PORTx LATH2 = 1; // turn led on for example ...
