As something to do I've added all the old YAPP project files to GitHub. These are all the old PIC based ones. Included is all the source code, project files, BOMs and hardware design files. They can all be found under the YAPP repository here...

miniwinwm - Overview

Some notes:

- The hardware schematics and layouts are done using DesignSpark. This has moved on a few versions now but the latest will be able to open these old files and will then offer to convert to the new file format.

- The PIC project files/source code is compiled using MPLAB IDE version 8.56 and the C18 compiler version 3.47. Although these are deprecated by Microchip now they still have them on their website as legacy downloads.

- Not all projects have hardware design files. This is because some projects use the same hardware as another project. The SeatalkDiag project uses the hardware of the Seatalk2USB project. All other projects without a hw folder use the hardware of the autopilot_remote project.

- These are made available as is. I'm not maintaining them, making hardware or supporting them. It's just example code for anyone interested.

- I still use the PICKit2 programmer which can be bought from EBay for a few £. The software can be downloaded from Microchip's website still although a data file update is needed for the PIC18F2xKxx processors. I'll add that to the GitHub repo if anyone wants it.

- You can find the original posts here by by using the forum search looking for YAPP. If you find the link to the original post add it to this thread.

- The processor part number on the schematics is not always correct as I was lazy when copying and pasting designs. The non USB ones all work the the PIC18F26K22 and the USB ones work with the PIC18F2550.

- They are all made available using the MIT license - basically do what you want with them but don't claim you wrote them or try to restrict me in what I can do with them.
