PIC12F508 Description

The PIC12F508 is an 8-bit, fully-static, Flash-based CMOS Microcontroller with 8 pins, six of which can be utilized as I/O pins. It has both Power-on-Reset (POR) and Device Reset Timer (DRT), which eliminates the need for additional Reset hardware. It includes a 4MHz internal oscillator that may be adjusted in Power saving oscillator mode.

PIC12F508 Programming

PIC microcontrollers can be programmed using a variety of commercially available software. There are still people that program PIC MCUs in Assembly language. The following information pertains to Microchip's most advanced and commonly used software and compiler.

To program the PIC microcontroller, we'll need an IDE (Integrated Development Environment), which will allow us to do so. A compiler converts our software into HEX files, which can be read by MCUs. Our hex file is dumped into our PIC MCUs using an IPE (Integrated Programming Environment).

IDE: MPLABX v3.35

IPE: MPLAB IPE v3.35

Compiler: XC8

All three pieces of software have been provided by Microchip for free. They are available for download directly from their official website. For your convenience, I've also included a link. Install these on your PC once they've been downloaded.

We'll need a gadget called PICkit 3 to dump or upload our code into PIC. The PICkit 3 programmer/debugger is a low-cost in-circuit debugger controlled by a PC running MPLAB IDE (v8.20 or higher) on a Windows platform. The PICkit 3 programmer/debugger is a must-have tool for any development engineer. The following is a basic programming circuit for the PIC12F508 microcontroller.
