Hi Brian

Thanks for the welcome. I am enjoying programming up my first PIC.
I think light level detection with the comparator is just what I am after.

Hi kersing

I like your suggestion, very much what I had in mind.
So do you think I can connect this to PIC 16F628 ?
I guess if I can it would be to pin 17 or 18 AN0 / AN1.

Hi Enamul Thanks to your help I have purchased Flowcode 5 (Home) and have successfully designed my PIC and circuit so the led dims up, holds 100% then dims down, look great. I was wondering if it was possible to add a light level detector to an input of the PIC, 16F628, so as to run the LED only whe...

Hi Enamul

I very much appreciate your help with this, thank you Dave.

Hi Enamul It was very kind of you to send me the code, I will try it out. The bit I wanted to see most was the Flowcode you also sent, but the free trial I am running is limited to just a few PIC devices, my PIC not being one of them. So it will not let me see your flow chart. Would it be possible t...

If you could that would be very kind.

Hi

I am running the free trial of Flowcode V5 and want to know if I can use it to bring an led from off to full brightness over say 0.5 second ?
I think this would be done using PWM which is built into the PIC I am using 16F628.
If I know it can be done I can purchase the full program.

Thanks, Dave
