Can't make dsPIC33EP512GP806 to work at all - HELP!
Posted: Thu May 02, 2013 6:04 pm
Hi Ben et al,
I have tried everything and I'm a bit desperate now... Flowcode 5.5.2.1 Professional.
I have a simple circuit: dsPIC33EP512GP806 (have tried on different boards as well), nothing connected to it, very clean 3.3V (10uV ripple), no external XTAL, and for testing I'm using the internal Fast RC oscillator to get the dsPIC started at least.
The simplest for example to enable port D.L(all bits), it just doesn't work at all. I get no signal out of the pins...
I am able to program/verify the device successfully through both Flowcode and through MPLAB X too. I'm using my PicKit3 which I currently use to program my dsPIC30F5013 devices...
I have tried all settings in the Project Options to no avail. Latest settings I have tried with are shown below, I have however tried with many different clock speeds and any setting possible. I have even tried the config bits by following eahc of the entries in the Data Sheet (DEVICE CONFIGURATION REGISTER MAP), still no luck
Very frustrating!
Thanks for your help!
PS: I use both dsPIC30 and dsPIC33 micros and although the dsPIC30 took me some time to get it to start, it worked in the end... it works fine with internal Fast RC no PLL.
