A rare tutorial for using C on the PIC
Review written by: Philippe Habib From
Unlike most PIC books which focus on coding in assembler, this book uses the CCS C compiler for all of its examples. It provides simple solid C examples that show what needs to be done. An embedded C tutorial in the front of the book reviews the language. Excercises (With some solutions in an appendix) at chapter end help you know what you understood and where you need more work. The appendix of library functions repeats what is available in the CCS help so I did not find it useful. Maybe it would be to someone who didn't have the compiler. Overall, this book helped me find how to do what I needed to with a minimum of reading irrelevant information and that's really the highest praise I can give to an instructional book. I recomend this book to any experienced programmer who wants to get started with PIC development.

Doesnt worth its price
Review written by: Cheong Soon Yau From UK
Provided you have NO knowledge on C programming and microcontroller, otherwise you dont really need this book. I personally think that big portion of contents could be found in CCS's manual and sample code FREE.

Anyway, this book is more readable than the manual as it is more well-arranged, together with some explanation and diagram. This could be helpful to beginner with NO prior knowledge on embedded C programming.

Excelent book for a Newbie!
Review written by: Dr Antonio Lobo From Maia, Maia Portugal
For a Newbie on PIC C programming like me, this is really an excellent book. It teaches C language programming, helping the reader to create an entire program (step-by-step). Also, the reader can understand the PIC architecture and learn how use a C compiler (like CCS C). Finally, the reader can learn and try to implement a complete project using microcontrollers. I recommend this book to anyone who is thinking to make a travel through the field of microcontrollers and embedded programming.

A very good Text Book
Review written by: John Leung From Hong Kong
A very good textbook for undergraduate learning MCU programming. This book is based on CCS C complier, a step-by-step guide from basic C programming to project planning.
