About this title

Synopsis:

Microchip's PIC microcontroller is rapidly becoming the microcontroller of choice throughout the world. This hands-on tutorial and disk provide everything electronic designers, engineers, and advanced hobbyists need to tap the power of this invaluable chip: the most complete description of PIC available; over 30 experiments and ten complete PIC application projects; a full set of DOS and Windows PIC development tools; reusable source code; and a complete PIC application program that can easily be tailored to the reader's needs.

From the Back Cover:

For complete, practical insight into the chip that is quickly becoming the microcontroller of choice throughout the world. The use of Microchip's PIC family of microcontrollers is growing rapidly worldwide. This tutorial/disk package is unique in providing you with a complete understanding of the PIC chip and all the information needed to design and debut tailor-made applications using the PIC family of devices. Programming and Customizing the PIC Microcontroller details the features of the PIC microcontroller and how different devices are accessed and controlled. It shows what happens within the PIC when an instruction is executed and how PICs can be interfaced with external devices. The heart of the book includes: 12 complete projects which illustrate the PIC's capabilities; over 30 experiments to reinforce your grasp of how the PIC works; a discussion of how the devices are electronically programmed; an explanation of the tools used for developing code for PIC applications; suggestions for debugging and easier code development. A diskette augments the book by offering all the Microchip software tools needed to program the PIC, sample application programs, and reusable code. Extensive appendixes include additional resources that can help you in developing and debugging PIC applications as well as tips on how to avoid typical application problems.
