I2C Sampling Rate

I'm having trouble trying to sample I2C slave devices using a dsPIC33f microcontroller. I am using the PICs internal timer1 timer to 'tick' over at a defined sampling rate and grab the necessary data. Unfortunately the results aren't being obtained…

How to address all fields in a struct like these registers?

If you've programmed a microcontroller, you're probably familiar with manipulating select bits of a given register, or writing a byte to the whole thing. On a PIC using C for example, I can write an entire byte to PORTA to set all the bits, or I can…

C18: Will the compiler "know" a function call will never return?

I'm building a 16 state FSM on a PIC18 with C18. I'm considering having each state as its own function which jumps to and gets jumped by other states. I'm tempted to just write a branch cases of "state##();"s at the end of each state to determine…
