PIC Microcontrollers Timer and Watchdog Timer

Welcome to this course.

This course will teach you how to deal with PIC Microcontroller Timers and Watchdog Timer Programming using Register Manipulation to control Time in your Projects instead of the newbie delay function.

We often use the famous delay function when we need to add a delay in our application, but do you really know what calling the delay function does to your app in the background?

Most seasoned programmers avoid using the delay function for a number of reasons that we will go over in this course. We will also describe in a methodical manner how to read the Microchip PIC microcontroller datasheet to obtain the clock information that we want.

Watchdog timers are an incredibly helpful tool to implement in your real-time sensitive apps. You probably heard about its existence, but do you know why it's well worth implementing it into your PIC Microcontroller projects?

This course will discuss the functions and uses of the timer and watchdog timer. Followers of this course will learn about these features and their specific purposes in designing a project. The course will also provide guidance on how to use them.

What you'll learn in this course:

• What are Timers
• What is Timer0
• What is the difference between Timer0, Timer1, and Timer2
• How to Interrupt the PIC when the timer overflows
• How to deal with timer register
• How to implement Delay using Timers instead of Delay Function
• Why you shouldn't use the Delay Function and how it affects your PIC Microcontroller based project
• What is a Watchdog Timer
• How Watchdog Timer can help save your life! and why it's used in very critical real-time projects?
• How to deal with Watchdog Timer
• Why Timers are an essential Peripheral
• Practical Application Examples

Why you should take this course?

You will learn how to use the Watchdog Timer and the Timer/Counter 0 Interrupts to create a timer that can be used for many different types of applications. You can control Time in your projects using PIC Microcontrollers. Save time in your projects by using this Free PIC Microcontroller Programming Tool to control Time in your Projects.

After taking this course, I can assure you that you will treat everything related to Timers and Delays in PIC Microcontroller in a totally different way.
