Starting PIC Microcontrollers: A Structured Approach with Complete Projects Book

Starting PICmicro is a highly illustrated introduction to PIC microcontrollers for the absolute beginner, giving a full explanation of how these devices work in an easy-to-understand manner. It is a highly practical introduction with breadboarded circuits, printer circuit board-based projects, many experiments and considerable practical work. Boxed sections in the text explain fully terms, jargon and acronyms to give a good understanding of the technology. Starting PICmicro provides a set of carefully positioned stepping stones for the absolute beginner to progress their knowledge and understanding. It shows them how to programme the PIC microcontroller and gives simple projects demonstrating how they are used in everyday electronic appliances. The projects give all the details to give a full understanding, including printed circuit board layouts, foil patterns, constructional details, housings, part lists, programs all fully illustrated and photographed down to the last nuts and bolts. The book also gives a simple explanations of how the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit works and how to use it, itemizing the parts, showing how the PICmicro device fits on the board and detailing what the parts are* Assumes no knowledge of electronics and microcontrollers.* Complete projects that fully describe printed circuit board layouts, foil patterns, housings, part lists and how it works sections, with complete illustrations and photos.* Explains how the PIC Kit 1 Flash Starter Kit works and demonstrates how to use it.Read More
