Nehul Malhotra
Using easy-to-find
components and
equipment, this
hands-on guide helps
you build a solid
foundation in
electronics and
embedded
programming while
accomplishing useful
— and slightly twisted — projects. Most of
the projects have fascinating visual appeal in
the form of large LED-based displays, and
others feature a voice playback mechanism.

Master and Command C
for PIC MCUs
by Fred Eady
Master and Command C
for PIC MCU,Volume 1
aims to help readers
get the most out of
the Custom Computer
Services (CCS) C
compiler for PIC
microcontrollers.
The author describes
some basic compiler
operations that will help programmers —
particularly those new to the craft —
create solid code that lends itself to easy
debugging and testing. As Eady notes in his
preface, a single built-in CCS compiler call
(output_bit) can serve as a basic aid to let
programmers know about the "health" of
their PIC code.

Electronics Explained
by Louis Frenzel
The New Systems Approach to
Learning Electronics
Don't spend time
reading about theory,
components, and old
ham radios - that's
history! Industry
veteran, Louis Frenzel,
gives you the real
scoop on electronic
product fundamentals
as they are today.
Rather than tearing
electronics apart and
looking at every little
piece, the author takes a systems-level view.
For example, you will not learn how to
make a circuit but how a signal flows from
one integrated circuit (IC) to the next, and
so on to the ultimate goal.
$29.95
This wickedly
inventive guide
shows you how to
program, build, and
debug a variety of
PICAXE
microcontroller
projects. PICAXE
Microcontroller
Projects for the Evil
Genius gets you started with
programming and I/O interfacing right away,
and then shows you how to develop a
master processor circuit.
