Jump to Problems & Solutions

Hi John here,

This is a new idea for the site as I have had quite a few requests for help in either designing  projects or debugging them.  

I would really like to help out more but the site does take time to maintain and create so I am creating a resource for you where you can enter your own questions and everyone can answer them (and see them as well).

As well as answering question, the questions/answers will remain on the site rather like a large FAQ list so rather than having an answer (or multiple answers) everyone can read and learn.  

Note: this is a brand new feature so I may have to move things around a bit as I am not too familiar with the software but the best way is to jump right in.

The only rules will be that this is a help-and-be-helped place so no flaming or profanity etc.

What should you ask?

Maybe you have a coding problem e.g. led dot matrix or ultrasonic project problem or things that are not covered directly on the site.

Maybe you have a hardware design problem.
  • Questions don't have to be related to PIC microcontrollers.
  • If you use a compiler state the compiler name and version.
  • Questions don't have to be related to C programming e.g. Basic Pascal, Forth, Assembler JAL etc.

Note: This feature is moderated so your questions / answers are approved before going live - this protects you from malicious people and stops irrelevant questions etc.

Your Resource

I would really like this to become your resource - there may be other ideas introduced as I think of how to use this tool perhaps:
Let me know what you would like using the wish list (to left).

Do you need to solve a microcontroller problem?

If you need an answer to your microcontroller or microcontroller related problem just post a question here and let other people help you out.
