5.1 INTRODUCTION

This tutorial walks you through the process of developing a simple project using the

sample programs counter.c and timer.c. This is an implementation of the

PIC24FJ128GA010 device using the Explorer 16 Demo Board (DM240001). The

program counter.c is a simple counting program. The incremental count, delayed by

using Timer 1 (timer.c), is displayed via Port A on the demo board’s LEDs.
