Fat Controller - Source code


Click to view printable version of this page

The Fat Controller software was written entirely in assembly language - this was the only way to squeeze all the desired features into a 16-series PIC.  Here is the full source code:

fatcontroller_source_v1.2.zip
fatcontroller_source_v1.1.zip
fatcontroller_source_v1.0.zip

It was developed in MPLAB IDE and will compile using the MPASM Assembler.  It was written for the PIC16F877 which is now obsolete, but the replacement PIC16F877A will work just fine.

If you don't have a PIC programmer you can buy a PIC pre-programmed.
