Questions answered in these manuals
What is the function of the TRISx register?
The TRISx register determines whether each pin associated with the I/O port is configured as an input or an output.
What is the purpose of the LATx register?
The LATx register eliminates problems associated with read-modify-write instructions by reading values from the port output latches instead of the I/O pins.
What is the MPLAB Starter Kit for PIC24F used for?
It is a development and demonstrative tool for PIC24F MCU device capabilities and features.
Where can I get the latest documentation for the kit?
Visit Microchip’s website at www.microchip.com to download the most recent files and information.
How do you enable Comparator 1 and Comparator 2?
Set the C1EN and C2EN bits in the CMCON register to 1; each bit enables the corresponding comparator.
How can the comparator output polarity be inverted?
Set the C1INV or C2INV bits in the CMCON register to 1 to invert the output of Comparator 1 or Comparator 2 respectively.
