Programming pic microcontrollers with picbasic book
The PICBASIC programming language makes it possible to create powerful software for the PIC microcontroller in days instead of the weeks required when using assembly language. This comprehensive tutorial assumes no prior experience with PICBASIC.
It opens with an introduction to such basic concepts as variables, statements, operators, and structures. This is followed by discussion of the two most commonly used PICBASIC compilers. The author then discusses programming the most common version of the PIC microcontroller, the 16F876.
The remainder of the book examines several real-world examples of programming PICs with PICBASIC. In keeping with the integrated nature of embedded technology, both hardware and software are discussed in these examples; circuit details are given so that readers may replicate the designs for themselves or use them as the starting points for their development efforts.
* Offers a complete introduction to programming the world_ s most commonly used microcontroller, the Microchip PIC, with the powerful but easy to use PICBASIC language.
* Gives numerous design examples and projects to illustrate important concepts.
* Accompanying CD contains the source files and executables discussed in the book as well as an electronic version of the book
* Includes projects from simple flash an LED to LCD control to controlling a servo driven obstacle detecting robot.
PicBasic Compiler is not included with this book. That is a separate item. This is just a book that teaches how to use the PicBasic Compilers. PicBasic Compilers are available from melabs.com.
