Baseline project for platform Microchip PIC18F4550 (MPLAB X project with XC8 compiler)

Overview

This is a baseline project for the PIC18F4550 microcontroller with the following ready to use drivers:

UART with dynamic configurable baudrate.
ADC with static configurable number of channels.
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) with static configurable number of channels, using the highest possible frequency with the highest possible resolution (10 bits).
DIO (Digital Input/Output) with static configurable number of channels.
Master mode SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) with static configurable clock frequency.
Master mode IIC (Inter-Integrated Circuit) with static configurable clock frequency.
Mcu (Micro-controller Unit) with static configurable clock signals to handle low-power modes (Sleep instruction for example).
Timer 1 with external 32.768 Khz crystal for real-time applications.
Flash with static configurable memory map to read/erase/write data or code on the code flash memory.

Most of the base drivers come with Sync and Async interfaces to set requests to the peripheral and letting the ISRs (interrupt service routines) handle the responses. These ISRs (per driver) come with a static configurable priority.

This project also comes with an example of bootloader over UART ( 🚧 work in progress) that shows the basic design and implementation of a bootloader software, control pass mechanism to application software, and modifying code flash routines.

Schematic

This is the schematic of the platform based on the pinguino 18f4550 platform, which has a LED connected to the RA4 pin and the RE3 pin connected to a reset button.
