can someone explain these code to me? especially the one in bold?

anyone can help me? thanks a million
i have to explain it to my supervisor but i don't know how. attachment for the 2 files.

its code of which microcontroller................

Click to expand...

it's in PIC16C54. i have to explain what the code means. but i don't get them. especially pin 16. of pic16C54

That is very strange 16C54 code.

What language is it written in? It's an old chip but I've programmed hundreds of them in the past and I don't recognize some of those opcodes.

Brian.

Hi,


The file in the attached .rar is a proper Pic16C54 servo motor program with notation.

Seems the # code shown has been doctored, by placing the Device Pic16C54 into it.
Assume it is really something like AVR Assembly doing the similar servo motor control.. ?

Ok. let's start this all over again.
thank you all for your help.

i am trying to understand how this PIC16C54 send data ( pulse and direction ) to the stepper motor driver 5804.
i have attached the data sheet of the kit,pic,stepper motor i am using and the stepper motor driver.

i need your help to understand how this pic16c54 "interact" with the driver. and how the driver analysis the data and move the motor.


note* motor i using page 3/4 (MY5602)

Hi,

You really need to first understand the principles of a stepper motors operation.

MicroChip have several application notes on this, some in Assembly, just two links below, search for more.
Also many basic stepper tutorials on the web, again one example below.

Once you understand how they function then it will be easier for you to follow the assembly code.
