PICMicro Microcontrollers
by Myke Predko
This book is a fully
updated and revised
compendium of PIC
programming information. Comprehensive
coverage of the
PICMicros' hardware
architecture and software schemes will
complement the host
of experiments and
projects making this a true "learn as you
go" tutorial. New sections on basic electronics and basic programming have been
added for less sophisticated users, along
with 10 new projects and 20 new experiments. The CD-ROM contains all source
code presented in the book, software tools
designed by Microchip and third party vendors for applications, and the complete
data sheets for the PIC family in PDF format. $49.95
