Thanks again, bartjenniskens
I will read again about the flags for sure as i have all the datasheet in pdf.
Correct me if i am wrong but i realise that you agree with this troubleshooting that the problem is within PIC and not the TSA5511?
Last question, if i manage to read the existing PIC memory can i come back to you for advice?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Indeed, I would be suspicious about the PIC than I would be about the TSA5511.
Sure, but assembly is not my strongest point.
Many thanks i will keep you posted

Hi again, here is my latest actions.
please be informed that programming is neither my strongest point, i have purchase PICkit 3 that i have connect and using the MPLAB software after few corrective attempts i manage to read the PIC16F628A. Within i am able to see all memory partitions like Program memory, Configuration bits, EE data memory, User ID memory and Device ID memory.
It seams all are there as i found my name that was entered during previous normal operation. After read I try a Verify action and it comes with the following message.
Readingā¦
The following memory area(s) will be read:
program memory: start address = 0x0, end address = 0x7ff
configuration memory
EEData memory
User Id Memory
Read complete
Verifyingā¦
The following memory areas(s) will be verified:
program memory: start address = 0x0, end address = 0x7ff
configuration memory
EEData memory
User Id Memory
Verification successful.
To my opinion it seams to be OK what do you believe?
I remain.

Hi Dimis,
Iāve got a drfs06 exciter and it looks like the pic just died. Iāve got an empty pic laying around, but canāt find the firmware. Could you read out your pic and share the firmware?
I would really appreciate your help. Thank you!
Hi bartjenniskens,
Iāve got a pll fm transmitter in which the pic died. In case I canāt get the original firmware for the pic, could you share your .ino code so that I can build an alternative controller? I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you very much!
Off course, Iāll reply with the code to set the TSA5511

Hi bartjenniskens, I donāt want to look like Iām impatient, but are you still gonna share your code?
Hey @lavao; Apologies for the delayed response, here is the full code. This code includes a 16x2 LCD display and 3 buttons. On the LCD the frequency and PLL Lock of the TSA5511 is shown, the buttons are used to set the frequency.

No, it is for Particle products using their toolchains.
