Investigate concepts involving parallel communications and handshaking.
Learn about asynchronous communications and communicate with a microcontroller using a terminal emulation program to implement a point to point serial link between the chipKIT™ PRO MX7 and a PC.
Investigate synchronous communications with the SPI master-slave serial bus
Generate a proportional output using the output compare resource on the PIC®32MX processor to implement digital-to-analog conversion with pulse width modulation (PWM), thus controlling the speed of a DC motor.
Use the PIC™ 32 input capture to measure frequency to determine the speed of a DC motor.
