The RepRap microcontroller firmware

Introduction

This page links to documentation describing the firmware for the PIC stepper controller board and the PIC extruder controller board.

Building the RepRap PIC firmware under Linux

This page gives instructions on how to compile all the PIC firmware on a Linux system.

Programming RepRap PIC chips

This page gives instructions on how to use a conventional PIC programmer to do in-circuit programming of the PIC chips in the RepRap controllers above.

Stepper motor timings

This page describes how the PIC stepper controller boards do timing to get different stepper motor speeds.

Extruder heater control and temperature measurement

This page describes how the PIC extruder controller board senses temperatures and uses that information to control its heater.
