Mechatronics

Mechatronics is a core subject for engineers, combining elements of mechanical and electronic engineering. DVD players or anti-lock braking systems. This book is the most comprehensive text for mechatronic system design. It offers broader and more instructions in the field. A further feature for the PIC microcontroller, and the use of MATLAB and Simulink programming, along with the code for the accompanying website.

* Integrated coverage of PIC microcontroller programming, MATLAB and Simulink modeling
* Fully developed student exercises, detailed practical examples
* Accompanying website with Instructor's Manual, downloadable code and image bank
