Insomnia strikes again and I've been itching to try out some screen capture software along with a new mic I snagged that a neighbor was throwing out ... so let's learn how to program simple led blinking test program and finally a software based SPI transmitter that can be used to control LED displays and other such peripherals using a microcontroller. I use a PIC12F629 but this general method will work with just about any micro and is very flexible to accommodate varying pinouts and packet specifications. As this was an impromptu programming lesson, I did absolutely no preparation so please forgive the issues I was having with the screen capture program and many jump cuts which will be corrected in future programming videos.
