About the book

The use of microprocessor systems in everyday life is so common that it is difficult to imagine the functioning of a modern man without them. This universality is caused by huge possibilities offered by modern microcontrollers and easy design of devices using them. Bascom AVR allows you to quickly and easily prepare programs for most popular AVR microcontrollers. Using the instructions built into Bascom to operate LCD displays, communication interfaces (I2C, 1-Wire or RS232), TCP / IP stack and many other peripherals, you can quickly write an effective and stable application. Achieving the intended effect in a microprocessor system has never been so easy! In addition, the programmer is not required to know exactly the architecture of the microcontroller used, which is necessary when writing programs in assembler or in C language.

The book describes how to use the Bascom package and basics of the Bascom Basic language. The use of specific language instructions has been illustrated with many examples with extensive comments. All examples of projects (and many others) can be made on their own thanks to the ZL2AVR starter kit with the ATmega8 microcontroller.

The book is intended for students and technical university students, as well as all electronic engineers using AVR microcontrollers in their projects.

About the author

Marcin Wiązania is a graduate of the Faculty of Computer Science at the Częstochowa University of Technology. Since 2001, he has been cooperating with the monthly Elektronika Praktyczna, in which he runs, among others, programming course of microcontrollers in Bascom language. He also works on developing new versions of Bascom with his author Mark Alberts. He is also the author of many technical publications, he has developed and made many projects of advanced microprocessor devices. Currently, he deals with Programmable System on a Chip microcontrollers and PLD systems.
