These example files can be used as the starting point for a new project in MPLAB.  Use the project wizard, select the C30 compiler and add these files into the project. PIC24FJ256GB106 main.h – Generic project header file main.c – main C file main.h – header file for main.c

Soft Reset asm("reset"); Reset Function Generally the C30 will use the startup module to do some setup works. Refer to the device linker script file (p24HJ256GP206.gld), there are something like: OUTPUT_ARCH("24HJ256GP206") CRT0_STARTUP(crt0_standard.o) CRT1_STARTUP(crt1_standard.o) OPTIONAL(-lp24HJ256GP206) The CRTn_STARTUP commands specify two C run-time startup modules to be loaded from archives. The linker will select one of these […]
