Assistance needed migrating a PIC-µP based PRE - project

[Rudi_Ratlos]

Is there anybody, who is willing to assist me migrating an existing PIC 16F886 / MPLAB-ID / Hi-Tech C-Compiler - based PRE-processor project to:
PIC16F1827/ MPLAB-X-IDE / XC8 compiler?

The "old" project (designed and programmed by myself) works without any problems.

The PRE-PCB includes:

- Soft-Power-On (using 2 relays and NTC resistors)
- Mains DC elimination
- 2-channel-source selection by means of 2 Takamisawa NA 052 K relays
- Volume attenuation by means of motorized (L293D) Audio potentiometer (f.e. ALPS Blue Velvet)
- Temperature monitoring by means of LM35
- Remote Control of all functions by means of TSOP31236 / Philips RC5 protocol

I will of course share the existing firmware with you.

As award I will give you (the assistant) 2 of the "new" PCBs - for nothing.
Please give me a PM, if you have the skill and will assist me.

Best regards - Rudi_Ratlos

This is the current state of the "new" PRE.
The PCB-size is 100 x 100mm.

As interface / programming tool I use a PICKIT2.

Hi Rudi,

Would you be willing to consider migrating to arduino from the pic?

Geoff, changing to ARDUINO is not possible.

The hardware (PCB, PICKIT3) and software (existing firmware in MPLAB IDE, ...) will only work with the PIC.

Sorry Rudi, I didn't realise you wanted to exploit existing PCBs; thought you might be working on a new/updated design.

As for writing arduino software - I don't see that as a problem.
