Please log in for more thread options Hello every one! I have a microcontroler PIC16F88. I want to make some simple applications with it, but for some applications I need to swap the value of one bit in one of two ports (PORTA or PORTB). For example: If PORTB bit 3 is set I want to reset it. And if PORTB bit 3 is reset I want to set it. In main idea i want to make logical NOT for bit 3 or antoher bit in ports. In programing language C this thing is : PORTB,3 != PORTB,3 but I can't inplement this in my assembler program. If someone understand my idea can you help me for this? Thank you for your attention! | |||||||||||||||||||

It doesn't even match the bastardized versions that I've seen implemented for small processors. _Assuming_ the right bitfield definition for PORTB, you _could_ use something like PORTB.bits.BIT3 = ~PORTB.bits.BIT3; or PORTB.bits.BIT3 = PORTB.bits.BIT3 ^ 1; Both of these would work, even with a strictly ANSI-C compliant compiler. > but I can't inplement this in my assembler program.

But you need to do this byte-wise, which means that in C you'd do something like PORTB ^= 0x08; // exclusive-or bit 3 You'd do the same in assembler: read the port, xor with 08h, then write it back to the port. How to do that in the 35 easy-to-learn instructions that you get with a PIC is up to you. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software?

The way to toggle a bit is by using the XOR instruction. In your case, use: MOVLW b'00001000' ;Set bit 3 high XORWF PORTB, F ;Toggle bit 3 of PORTB You might need to be careful of the read/modify/write problem that can cause unexpected results under some conditions. You need to make sure the port output is actually what you expect it to be, so if there is a heavy capacitive load, or if the port is open drain, you might be safer using a shadow file register for operations and writing the results to the port, as follows: BDATA RES 1 ;Reserve 1 byte for PORTB data CLRF BDATA ;Initialize MOVF BDATA, W MOVWF PORTB ;Write the intended data to the port MOVF BDATA, W ;Move BDATA to W register XORLW b'00001000' ;Toggle bit 3 of BDATA MOVWF PORTB ;Write the intended data to the port If you have some pins of PORTB as inputs, you will need to read them and then adjust the BDATA register accordingly. This can be done by masking appropriate bits and using logical AND/OR operations to set or clear them. Paul | |||||||||||||||||||

Paul's XOR method is probably the best but here is another way using bit manipulation. It does take five steps though. BTFSC PORTB,3 ;if port b 3 is "1" GOTO $+3 ;jump forward 3 steps BSF PORTB,3 ;else if "0", set it GOTO $+2 ;and jump out BCF PORTB,3 ;if 3rd step, clear it | |||||||||||||||||||
