How to get the clock output from the PIC to a clock input for a shift register? Thanks

A piece of wire or a PCB track?.

what do you mean by that? I din use PCB .....
I am using 16F88

hi tt,
Are you using the 16F88 internal clock or an external crystal.?

Internal 4MHz clock

hi,
Ive had a quick look thru the 16F88 datasheet, I dont think can bring out the internal clock.?

EDIT:
Look at Section 4:1 of datasheet, it says

even with programming? which means i cant handle with shift register? sigh ..

Look at my EDIT ref INTIO1

Recheck this image.? Its says it can be done. Prog INTOSC/FOSC2,1,0 to suit and check the osc output with a scope.

I'd first define this:

Code:

	ifdef	__16F88
 __config _CONFIG1,_BODEN_OFF&_WDT_OFF&_LVP_OFF&_MCLR_OFF&_PWRTE_ON&_INTRC_IO

so output will be at RA6?
How to program it? ASM newbie here.

hi,
Ive looked at the 16F88.inc file in microchip for the CONFIG1 it says:

_INTRC_CLKOUT

_CONFIG1,_BODEN_OFF&_WDT_OFF&_LVP_OFF&_MCLR_OFF&_PWRTE_ON&_INTRC_CLKOUT

would do it.

Do you need to use the 4Mhz clock output? Or can you use a spare output pin and generate your own 'clock' (i.e. high, NOP, low) when you want to clock in data?

Sorry, but it sounds like you don't have a clue what you're doing?.

Unless you're writing to the shift register at a speed of 4Mhz (you're not!) you don't need a 4Mhz clock. The clock on a shift register is used when you want it to do something. You don't want it to do something that many times a second!

Perhaps if you post a circuit diagram or an overview of your circuit we can help. But the solution is probably going to be using a spare output pin and generating the pulse you need in code.

Here is the schematic:

Well, I just want the parallel output to be converted as serial only. so thts y i choose shift register.

I do have another option to use assembly language but i am numb on that. Unless someone n guide me to have one particular register to serially output the data, well this method is much more preferable.

Which parallel output? If you want to use the LCD with less wires, check both of the following:

Oh and whilst this might be the only useful thing I ever contribute on these forums, your /MCLR pin is tied low. That wont work.

Pull it up to VDD with a resistor and switch it to GND if you need a reset switch.

well, i din use that. So i OFF my MCLR for that.
The 4 parallel is the one connected to the DB4 ~ 7.
Do you know assembly well?
