Hi all,

A few months ago someone on the list made mention of the PIC 16F1619,
prompting me to order a few to check out. It's an interesting little chip
with some nice peripherals. I decided to do a mains frequency monitor
project using it. The project is not quite complete, but you can read about
my progress so far on my blog:

Part 1:
http://syncchannel.blogspot.com/2016/05/designing-mains-frequency-monitor-part-1.html

Part 2:
http://syncchannel.blogspot.com/2016/06/designing-mains-frequency-monitor-part-2.html

Any feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Best regards,

Dan W.

Dan,

Nice.

Ideas for the next go around

  • Add a 10 MHz in circuit to replace or override the TCXO. , this is
    Time-Nuts you know :-)

  • The SPI could be used as the 2nd I/O port

And if one wants to play more the this part or other pics search on
Google for "Curiosity Board by Microchip"
