MPLAB IDE
ISIS PROTEUS

Procedures:
1. Using ISIS PROTEUS, construct the circuit as shown in Figure 1. Set the crystals
frequency to 4MHz.
2. Using MPLAB IDE, build the program in Figure 2.
3. Load the obtained hex file into the PIC16F887 (Refer to Lab 3 for assistance).
4. Run the circuit and observe.

Answer the following questions:

1. With your own words, define PWM.

2. Explain how to generate PWM signal using PIC16F887 microcontroller.

3. Replace the LED with a dc motor. Observe the speed of motor by pressing button S1
or S2. Explain the function of S1 and S2 by referring to the given program and circuit.

4. Design a system that is able to control the speed/direction of a stepper motor

(unipolar or bipolar) by using PWM signal.
