This video is a little crash course on how to program a PIC microcontroller. I am using the PIC AS assembler, which is the newer version of the Microchip Assembler, and I will be programming using a PIC 12F675, though you can probably follow along with other mid-range devices.


We will be using MPLABX, and demonstrating many of the features which are useful when programming and debugging PIC microcontrollers.

Microchip Assembler User Guide: https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/e...


Keep the above manuals handy whilst programming these devices! In addition to the above references, I recommend some great videos I have found on YouTube. The following list are videos I recall watching and enjoying, so have a watch if you like:

For migrating from MPASM, I recommend you watch Pizzey's tutorial:    • MPLAB-X IDE and XC8-AS assembler transitio...  

For a lot of great info and demonstrations regarding assembly programming (they use MP ASM), I'd recommend the excellent channel 'Circuit Bread':    / @circuitbread
