JustInTime Project Pages
You'll find some descriptions of SX and PIC projects on these pages.
Projects
- As a 'hello world' #2 exercise, we've done some Knight Rider walking led experiments. These experiments demonstrate: pwm, either through SX Virtual Peripherals or inline and How to drive many leds with a few io-pins.
- Driving a shift register led display driver.
- 'Very Limited Space' Midi Sustain Pedal.
- Fake Cricket.
Programming
For newer PICs, the picprog programmer needs to be Modified. SX chips should best be programmed with the SX-Key or the SX-Blitz.
Although almost each project could be done with an SX as well as a specific PIC chip, the approach and philosophy between both is quite different. Look at the differences we found (on the internet) and discovered (ourselves) between the two competitors.
Tutorial
As there are many, many tutorials about PICs on the internet, and the SX is very well documented by Parallax, we won't be serving another one here.
Reminder to the maintainers: more documentation is in the WikiDocumentation pages.
