[Elecraft] How does the W-1 work?

2006-11-28 Thread k7hbg
Hi Everybody.

 I just got my W-1 and put it together. It's a KEEPER , works like a
champ! I read the manual Page (11) circuit description a few times and
it seems to make sense. I would like to know what is going on in the
little PIC processor. I don't want the code or anything but I sure would
like to know what it is doing in general. A flow chart would be nice.
 I know that it has digital inputs and outputs as well as an analog to
digital converter. It seems that a good amount of the schematic really
exists inside the PIC and so, I'm curious.

 Best regards, Bob K7HBG

Welcome to the world of SW.  In this day, more of the functionality of a
circuit is often done in software, and that software can be very
complex.  In fact, SW in general is far more complex than hardware just
because it can be.  Complex hardware takes development time, board real
estate and pushes parts counts up.  Complex software only takes
development time.

Now, to your question about what's going on inside the WM-1 PIC?  Sorry,
I have no idea.
