In a project I'm working on I decided to re-factor some code to make room for an extra feature I wanted to add. So I decided to re-write the way my delays were coded, so instead of looping on NOP's I decided to use the in-built timers for my chip; this was probably the way I should have implemented it given my chip had a limited program code space of 8K.
Anyway I ended up creating a simple .net app to allow me to change the PIC register settings through trackbar-sliders and see what kind of delay I could get without having to work it out manually; also adding the ability to "loop" on the timer.
There is also a feature to convert the finished delay to a simple few lines of C code setting the required registers. The small app is only applicable to similar hardware timers to the 16F877A.
