Microcontrollers  [CORE TEXTS]   (Electrical and Computing Engineering)

Focuses on the use of Microchip Technology's "PIC" microcontroller chips to integrate the features of a digital design. The book introduces program writing with a series of code templates that helps readers learn by doing, rather that start their own code writing from scratch.

FEATURES:

• Uses detailed block diagrams to illustrate all registers, control bits, and status bits associated with assorted functions.
• Uses examples throughout to illustrate points and to show readers how assorted issues can be handled.
• Provides a systematic path into the PIC microcontrollers by showing its organization and ways to deal with its complexities.
• Provides alternative methods for addressing interrupt timing constraints designed to meet the needs of all interrupt sources.
• Presents a systematic treatment of slowly changing events, including keyswitches that have been debounced and scanned with a state machine implementation.
• Includes the I/O port expansion using the serial peripheral interface that provides a simple mechanism for eliminating the problem of "not enough pins."
• Presents expansion with I2C devices.
• Presents the details of the PIC's unusually flexible analog-to- digital conversion facility.
• Discusses the master-slave interconnection of PICs.
• Presents low-power operation alternatives.
• Provides quick insight into the family member which will meet design requirements with block diagram comparisons of PIC family members.(Figure A-4)
• Includes several important pedagogical features:
• Problems at the end of each chapter reinforce the material presented.
