1. Introduction

Peripheral interface controller (PIC) is a family of microcontrollers made by Microchip Technology. A microcontroller is a one chip computer that include microprocessors, memories, and peripherals. PIC devices are popular with both industrial developers and hobbyists due to their low cost, wide availability, large user base, extensive collection of application notes, availability of low cost or free development tools, serial programming, and re-programmable Flash-memory capability. They can be programmed to be timers, to control a production line, to control light and sound intensity by involving few sensors, and to perform other kind of tasks. The PIC microcontroller have five basic instruction cycle which are fetch, decode, execute, memory, and write (FDEMW) . [1]
