There
are a number of keyer solutions available, many using the ubiquitous PIC chip
– a device favoured for its low cost, low external components count, and ease
of programming. It would have been
easy to just buy one of these chips off the shelf; indeed K1EL
produces very popular keyer chips for as little
as US $8 at the time of writing.
However, I really wanted to see analogue speed and weight controls on the keyer and there was a tube of PIC16F877A chips each with 8 x A/D converters going free from a previous project…
