Interfacing PIC Microcontrollers

"Interfacing PIC Microcontrollers 2nd edition" is a great introductory text for those starting out in this field, and for reference. Bates has drawn open his 20 years of experience in this field to write this book, in order to pass his practical knowledge along to you. This book contains a balance of theory and practice with numerous examples throughout. You can access comprehensive coverage of basic microcontroller system design and implementation topics within. Bates' book also illustrates and advocates the advantages of current interactive design software exemplified by Proteus VSM supplied by Labcenter UK. This allows real-time simulation of microcontroller based designs, and supports the development of new applications from initial concept to final testing and deployment. The main components of the Proteus VSM suite are ISIS schematic capture and ARES PCB layout. ISIS integrates with the Microchip MPLAB programming toolset and other 3rd party software development systems. Student or engineer, if you need to work with PIC Microcontrollers you won't regret picking this book up! Features: photographic illustrations added throughout; software references updated to reflect the most modern systems which are primarily utilized including 16F877A; and extensive updates to chapters on Input and Output, Power Outputs, Serial Communication and more.
