Using the popular and pervasive mid-range 8-bit Microchip PICЮ as an archetype, Microcontroller Programming offers a self-contained presentation of the multidisciplinary tools needed to design and implement modern embedded systems and microcontrollers. The authors begin with basic electronics, number systems, and data concepts followed...
LHFSD is a book unlike any other! It covers the title topics in an incredible manner, and everything WORKS! --Corollary Theorems May, 2005
This book is a Practical Design Project and it contains 3 Parts: 1.Hardware Design guides the reader towards building the LHFSD PCB with a Microchip dsPIC30F4011 microcontroller running...
We live in a world in which we can’t trust our computers. For example, how can we
know for sure that our hardware manufacturer did not hide malicious code in the
system’s microchip? Or that our freshly installed operating system does not contain
backdoors created by a rogue developer from the OS development team?
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...

You'll discover how to make Arduino-based gadgets and robots...
Imagine a smart microchip that is buried in the ground for a long time. Upon certain triggering conditions this chip begins to grow and consume materials from its surroundings, converting them into energy and structural cells. As the chip grows further, it reconfigures its shape to become a mobile robot. Using its recently created mobility, the...
In an embedded system, firmware is the software that directly interfaces with the microcontroller, controlling the systems function. The major forces driving the embedded firmware development process today are reduced development times, increased complexity, and the need to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. These forces translate into strenuous...
PIC microcontrollers are used worldwide in commercial and industrial devices. The 8-bit PIC which this book focuses on is a versatile work horse that completes many designs. An engineer working with applications that include a microcontroller will no doubt come across the PIC sooner rather than later. It is a must to have a working knowledge...
