PROGRAMMING 8-BIT PIC MICROCONTROLLERS IN C with Interactive Hardware Simulation

 

The third book in this series is an introduction to programming microcontrollers in high level language using CCS C, illustrated by fully interactive circuit simulation using Proteus VSM. Includes a full hardware description and demo C programs for the PICDEM Mechatronics board, featuring temperature control, and dc and stepper motor applications.

INTERFACING PIC MICROCONTROLLERS

Embedded Design by Interactive Simulation

 

The second book in this series is a comprehensive guide to interfacing microcontrollers based on the I/O devices of the PIC 16F877 chip, including keypads, displays, analogue, timers and a full range of serial peripherals. Each interface is explained in detail by means of fully operational, interactive demonstration application using Proteus VSM design and simulation.

PIC MICROCONTROLLERS

An Introduction to Microelectronics

Second Edition

 

The first book in this series assumes little prior knowledge of microelectronics, and introduces microcontroller based circuits using the popular PIC 16F84A chip. It covers the basic concepts of digital hardware, microcontroller architecture, programming, interfacing and application design in assembly language.

Hello Readers

If you have found these books useful, please post a review on Amazon. Thanks!!

 

Keypad etc problems

Proteus 7.5 has an enhanced simulation mode for digital devices such that pull-up resistors attached to keypads, serial data lines etc need to be set to digital mode (not analogue) in the resistor properties dialogue – this has caused malfunction in some VSM designs, and the designs have now been updated.  This affects the demo files for both the Interfacing and C Programming books. These updated VSM files can only be run with a licensed version of Proteus at the moment, but locked files which can run in the demo version should soon be available.

 

ECAD course

Course materials for my ECAD course at the Product Development Centre Hastings are available under Other Downloads. Let them know if you are interested in the course at info@pdchastings.co.uk.

 

PIC Microcontrollers Third Edition

I have been invited by Elsevier to produce an update of the first book, which will then include Proteus VSM simulations of the sample applications, which will be available on this site soon.

 

Best wishes

Martin
