This is a basic tutorial for the steps required to get SPI working on the PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano
There are four variables to consider when selecting a stepper motor
In the hopes that it will help anyone that is still working on the PCB, here is a list of the steps needed for this homework assignment with the corresponding blog posts and some of my comments. I also added some links at the bottom for specific errors I have seen mentioned so far. Please comment if there are any parts of the process that you would like more details on and I will try to add to this post.
0 ohm resistors act as a through hole jumper wire on manufactured PCBs. Also known as “jumper chips’’ or"jumper leads”, 0 ohm resistors can be substituted for vias to cross over line traces. This is useful for PCBs that have many vias already and PCBs that want to avoid vias altogether. In the PCB industry, using 0 ohm resistors over jumper wires in the design process allows one less specialized tool when assembling the PCB. It is cheaper and more practical to install a jump lead using readily available resistor placing machines over having a separate machine for just placing jumper wires.

Conduct a continuity check on your board with a multimeter.
The goal of this tutorial is to reintroduce you to the timer subsystem, implement a timer using an interrupt-based design, convert your pushbuttons from prior tutorials to interrupt-based functionality, and verify the results on your LCD.
