Programming 16-Bit PIC Microcontrollers in C: Learning to Fly the PIC 24

Di Jasio, Lucio 2011

New in the second edition:

* MPLAB X support and MPLAB C for the PIC24F v3 and later libraries

* I2CT interface

* 100% assembly free solutions

* Improved video, PAL/NTSC

* Improved audio, RIFF files decoding

* PIC24F GA1, GA2, GB1 and GB2 support

Most readers will associate Microchip's name with the ubiquitous 8-bit PIC microcontrollers but it is the new 16-bit PIC24F family that is truly stealing the scene. Orders of magnitude increases of performance, memory size and the rich peripheral...


Test-Driven Development for Embedded C (Pragmatic Programmers)

Grenning, James W 2011

Another day without Test-Driven Development means more time wasted chasing bugs and watching your code deteriorate. You thought TDD was for someone else, but it's not! It's for you, the embedded C programmer. TDD helps you prevent defects and build software with a long useful life. This is the first book to teach the hows and whys of TDD for C programmers.TDD is a modern programming practice C developers need to know. It's a different way to program---unit tests are written in a tight...


Introduction to Embedded Systems: Using ANSI C and the Arduino Development Environment (Synthesis Lectures on Digital Ci

Russell, David 2010

Many electrical and computer engineering projects involve some kind of embedded system in which a microcontroller sits at the center as the primary source of control.

The recently-developed Arduino development platform includes an inexpensive hardware development board hosting an eight-bit ATMEL ATmega-family processor and a Java-based software-development environment. These features allow an embedded systems beginner the ability to focus their attention on learning how to write embedded...


The Linux Programming Interface: A Linux and UNIX System Programming Handbook

Kerrisk, Michael 2010

The Linux Programming Interface is the definitive guide to the Linux and UNIX programming interface—the interface employed by nearly every application that runs on a Linux or UNIX system.

In this authoritative work, Linux programming expert Michael Kerrisk provides detailed descriptions of the system calls and library functions that you need in order to master the craft of system programming, and accompanies his explanations with clear, complete example programs.

You'll find descriptions...


Design Patterns for Embedded Systems in C: An Embedded Software Engineering Toolkit

Douglass Ph.D., Bruce Powel 2010

A recent survey stated that 52% of embedded projects are late by 4-5 months. This book can help get those projects in on-time with design patterns. The author carefully takes into account the special concerns found in designing and developing embedded applications specifically concurrency, communication, speed, and memory usage. Patterns are given in UML (Unified Modeling Language) with examples including ANSI C for direct and practical application to C code. A basic C knowledge is a...


C Programming for Embedded Microcontrollers

Smith, Warwick A. 2009

The C Programming Language Technology is constantly changing. New microcontrollers become available every year and old ones become redundant. The one thing that has stayed the same is the C programming language used to program these microcontrollers. If you would like to learn this standard language to program microcontrollers, then this book is for you! ARM Microcontrollers ARM microcontrollers are available from a large number of manufacturers. They are 32-bit microcontrollers and usually...


Beginner's Guide to Embedded C Programming - Volume 2: Timers, Interrupts, Communication, Displays and More

Hellebuyck, Chuck 2009

If you liked his first C book "Beginner's Guide to Embedded C Programming" then you will love this one. In this "Volume 2" Chuck takes the reader to the next level by introducing how to drive displays, how to use interrupts, how to use serial communication, how to use the internal hardware peripherals of the PIC16F690 Microcontroller such as SPI, PWM and Timers. He even introduces how to drive a stepper motor for those looking for electromechanical design help. He tackles these topics with...


Designing Embedded Systems with PIC Microcontrollers: Principles and Applications

Wilmshurst, Tim 2009

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...


Advanced PIC Microcontroller Projects In C: From USB to RTOS With the PIC1 8f Series

Ibrahim, Dogan 2008

This book is ideal for the engineer, technician, hobbyist and student who have knowledge of the basic principles of PIC microcontrollers and want to develop more advanced applications using the 18F series.

The architecture of the PIC 18FXXX series as well as typical oscillator, reset, memory, and input-output circuits is completely detailed. After giving an introduction to programming in C, the book describes the project development cycle in full, giving details of the process of editing,...
