OOPIC Forum

This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

[oopic] Re: Providing a clock/time to the PIC

Wikipedia has a couple of equations for the declination of the Sun
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declination

You also need the Greenwich Hour Angle

There is a pretty decent explanation here:

Unless you use a coprocessor, you can't do the calculation with the
OOPic. A table lookup is good but, with a coprocessor, calculation
shouldn't take too long.
