Progress on LED Control Using PICs: New Schematic and GUI Development

This project focuses on the dual use of two Programmable Interface Controllers (PICs): one for setting LED voltages and the other for reading and setting static voltages. We aim to implement them as separate USB devices. The code for reading fixed voltage and HK values is based on our existing platform. Ongoing work includes finalizing the LED voltage-setting code and developing a GUI that integrates seamlessly with the new PIC configurations. Upcoming steps involve rigorous testing of the new schematic, creating a printed circuit board (PCB), and managing data updates and file storage for HK values.

Progress • Looking at using two PICs – one to set LED voltages, one to read HK/set static voltages • Use as two separate USB devices • HK reading/fixed voltage PIC code is essentially what we already had • Working on LED voltage setting PIC code • Made necessary changes to schematic
Next steps • Finish up code for PIC, set up GUI to work with new PIC code • Test new schematicmake PCB • Set up GUI for constant updating/saving HK to file • Testing • After that: • Components box • Paper
