TextPublication details: Amsterdam ; London : Newnes, 2010Edition: 2nd editionDescription: xxix, 661 p. : illISBN: 9780080961842 (ebook)Subject(s): Embedded computer systems -- Design and construction | Microprocessors -- Design and construction | Computers and IT | Embedded systems | Computer hardware | Electronics engineeringGenre/Form: Online access: Click here to access online Also available in printed form ISBN 9781856177504Summary: This text helps readers to develop the underlying knowledge and skills needed for professional practice in the embedded world by engaging with key issues, including networked systems, reliability and use of real-time operating systems. 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 of this 8-bit technology. This book takes the novice from introduction of embedded systems through to advanced development techniques for utilizing and optimizing the PIC family of microcontrollers in your device. To truly understand the PIC, assembly and C programming language must be understood. The author explains both with sample code and examples, and makes the transition from the former to the latter an easy one. This is a solid building block for future PIC endeavors. New to the 2nd Edition:*Include end of chapter questions/activities moving from introductory to advanced*More worked examples *Includes PowerPoint slides for instructors *Includes all code snips on a companion web site for ease of use *A survey of 16/32-bit PICs*A project using ZigBee
