The PIC Club is the current format of the Programming Special Interest Group of the Sydney PC User Group. A PIC is a Programmable Interface Controller, or microprocessor.
We discuss programming, particularly microprocessor programming, and project design. The PIC Club meets in Sydney on the second Tuesday of each month.
Come and show your projects, or see some others. We have a computer with a projector, so bring along pictures of your project on floppy, CD, or USB flash drive and we'll project it on a screen. We have a broadband internet connection, so discussion can be wide ranging. Anyone is welcome, and there is no fee for a first time visitor. |

At the January meeting Stuart showed the latest developments of his programming language. Using a PIC30 he calculated the square of pi to 8 decimal places. Martin explained his straingage project and showed its hardware. Anthony showed his Microbyte development board for PICs. Peter showed us GPutils, a set of software tools on SourceForge, including the simulator GPSIM. Neville showed a video from Instructables showing a remote controlled lawnmower, and introduced the RF Digital radio tranceivers that can be simply driven by a microprocessor to communicate with multiple other tranceivers. |
