A good book for the MC9S12DP512?

Hello all,

I am looking for a good tutorial type book on my microcontroller. I have a MC9S12DP512 on a CMD-12DP512 development board. For my old HC11, I refered to "The 68HC11 Microcontroller" by Greenfield. It would be great to find a book that would take me step-by-step into all the functions for my current MCU! Thanks alot in advance!

*Software and Hardware Engineering: Motorola M68HC12
*by Prof. Fred Cady and Jim Sibigtroth

Available from Oxford University press, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble (ISBN
0-19-512469-3). Fred Cady has written other college textbooks for the
M68HC11 and has been teaching microcontrollers at Montana State
University-Bozeman for several years. Jim Sibigtroth is the Motorola
systems engineer who defined the M68HC11, wrote the M68HC11 Reference
Manual (aka the Pink Book), and was part of the team that defined the
M68HC12.

This book can be used as a textbook for an undergraduate course on
microcontrollers, as a reference manual for the M68HC12, or as a source
for numerous programming examples. The early chapters can also serve as
a tutorial for engineers who are new to assembly language programming.
All code examples were developed and assembled using P&E Microcomputer
Systems tools, and can be run on the M68EVB912B32 or M68HC12A4EVB
evaluation boards.

I recommend "Programming the Motorola M68HC12 Family" by Gordon Doughman.
I'm also using the MC9S12DP512 on a Adapt9S12DP512 board and programming in assembly. Check out the 68HC12 Yahoo Group's files for floating point routines in assembly.

Hi Jerry,

There are some newer books that specifically cover the MC9S12 (as opposed to the older 68HC12 technology). I've compiled a list of all the books I've come across over the past little while here:
http://www.technologicalarts.ca/catalog/index.php?cPath=23
My top three picks (based on books I've actually purchased and read) appear at the top of the Amazon list (Huang, Cady, and Barret/Pack). However, there are some I haven't read yet ;o)

Best regards,
Carl Barnes

Thanks a lot Carl! I would also like to thank all of you for your replies! With all of the engineering tasks my job puts in front of me, this will make things much easier!

It is very much appreciated!

Thanks again,
Jerry Fields
