Product Details


Product Description

Book Description

A complete textbook on embedded systems design using the PIC, combining theory and practice

Product Description

This book is a hands-on introduction to the principles and practice of embedded system design using the PIC microcontroller. Packed with helpful examples and illustrations, it gives an in-depth treatment of microcontroller design, programming in both assembly language and C, and features advanced topics such as networking and real-time operating systems. It is accompanied by a companion website containing copies of all programs and software tools used in the text and a 'student' version of the C complier.

Designing Embedded Systems with PIC Microcontrollers: Principles and Applications is ideal for students of electronics, mechatronics and computer engineering. Engineers in industry and informed hobbyists will also find this book a valuable resource when designing and implementing both simple and sophisticated embedded systems using the PIC Microcontroller.

Support material, including new and supporting information, links to useful sites, and errata, is available from the book's companion site.

*Gain the knowledge and skills required for developing today's embedded systems, through use of the PIC microcontroller.

*Explore in detail the 16F84A, 16F873A and 18F242 microcontrollers as examples of the wider PIC family.

*Learn how to program in Assembler and C.

*Work through sample designs and design ideas, including a robot in the form of an autonomous guided vehicle.

*Accompanied by a CD-ROM containing copies of all programs and software tools used in the text and a 'student' version of the C complier.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book on PIC microcontrollers, May 25 2009
By Engineerer (Vancouver) - See all my reviews
This is a well written book on PIC microcontrollers. It starts off by using a simple microcontroller and introducing assembly language to program it. By using assembly language and a simple microcontroller to start with it is much easier to learn and understand what is going on.

The authour then moves on to a more complicated microcontroller, but still uses assembly language to program it. I feel that by keeping with assembly language through to an intermediate level microcontroller it is possible to really understand what is happening when higher level languages are used to program these and more complicated chips.

Finally the authour moves into the 18 series microcontroller and introduces C as the programming language. C is a very powerful and much faster way to get what you want out of the microcontroller, but I think it would be much harder to do without first toiling through the rigours of assembly first.

It is very satisfying to look back after reading through the book at the earlier chapters and realize just how much you have learned. This is an excellent book on embedded systems design, one of the best that I have come across so far.

3.0 out of 5 stars PIC Hardware design, May 22 2009

I was a newbie to pic , this book is a good start for someone to start learning about PIC arhitecture and assembly language .
The only thing i would like to add would be more C examples for 16f microcontrollers .
