PIC in Practice

PIC in a microcontroller through project work. Principles are introduced gradually, through hands-on experience, enabling students to develop their understanding of their own pace.

Dave Smith has a PIC for professionals and students at Manchester Metropolitan University. The result is a graded text, formulated around the practical exercises.

The book is ideal for colleges, schools and universities. Newcomers to the PIC will be a painless introduction.

PIC in Practice introduces applications using the popular 16F84 device as well as the 16F627, 16F877, 12C508, 12C629 and 12C675. 16F818, with additional information on writing and documenting software.

* Gentle introduction to using PICs for electronic applications
* Principles and programming introduced through graded projects
* Thoroughly up-to-date with 16F818 writing and documenting programs
