PIC in Practice, Second Edition: A Project-based Approach
By David W Smith
PIC in Practice is a graded course based around the practical use of the PIC microcontroller through project work. Principles are introduced gradually, through hands-on experience, enabling students to develop their understanding at their own pace.The book can be used at a variety of levels and the carefully graded projects make it ideal for colleges, schools and universities. Newcomers to the PIC will find it a painless introduction, whilst electronics hobbyists will enjoy the practical nature of this first course in microcontrollers.
Dave Smith has based the book on his popular short courses on the PIC for professionals, teachers and students at Manchester Metropolitan University. The result is a graded text, formulated around practical exercises, which truly guides the reader from square one.
PIC in Practice introduces applications using the popular PIC16F84 device as well as the PIC16F627, PIC12C508, PIC16F877, PIC12C629 and PIC12C675. In this new edition excellent coverage is given to the PIC16F818, with additional information on writing and documenting software.
- Principles and programming introduced through graded projects
- Gentle introduction to using PICs for electronic applications
- Thoroughly up-to-date with new chapters on the PIC16F818 and writing and documenting programs
