Objectives
". To !e #amiliar $it some so#t$are tools li%e MicroBasic Pro , PROTEUS, and
e&periments %it.
'. To %no$ o$ to ma%e a pro(ect using MicroBasic and ten get te e& #ile o#
te so#t$are program o# te pro(ect.
). *o$ to simulate te e& #ile using PROTEUS.
Tools
P+C",-.//0 Microcontroller, microBasic so#t$are, Proteus 1SM simulation program.
Introduction
Tese programs are te !ac%!one o# te microprocessor and microcontroller !ased
s2stems3 since using MicroBasic $e can !uild te so#t$are o# te pro(ect using Basic,
and ten $e can simulate te pro(ect 4irtuall2 using PROTEUS, #inall2 $e can
do$nload te program on te microcontroller and see te results practicall2 using
programmer . So tis e&periment includes all te %no$ledge te student $ill need to
get started to te programs.

+n tis section , $e $ill create a ne$ pro(ect , $rite some code and compile it in
micro!asic #or P+C and test te result. Out pro(ect $ill ma%e ?E6 diodes !lin%, so it
can easil2 tested on P+C microcontrollers.
Te #ollo$ing diagram so$ te connection sceme 2ou@ll need to test te code #or te
microcontroller , $e a4e used common cop in our e&periments. ?E6 diodes are
connected to PORTB, !ut 2ou can use an2 oter a4aila!le port.
