PIC12F629 Prob
Hey,
Im using the 12F629, and have a problem.
I took apart a cheep RC car and Im going to use it for the chassis for a simple robot. The Motors for the chassis use 6V power input to function.
I built 2 H-Bridges to allow the PIC to control the Motors.
The power input Im using for the PIC is 4.5V or 5V.
The PIC fails to run at all. I have manually tested the H-Bridges myself and am confident that the problem is the controller.
The PIC fails to run anything. I can get a good varification for the program after flaching the chip.
I unplug the power and then reenable the power on the robot and only once in a while will the PIC activate. Then it only works for a few moments then cuts of.
I've even replaced the batteries to ensure that Im not getting a brown out.
Can anyone shed some light on whats happening please?
