Microprocessors are the key component of the infrastructure of our
21st-century electronic- and digital information-based society.
More than four billion are sold each year for use in 'intelligent'
electronic devices; ranging from smart egg-timer through to
aircraft management systems. Most of these processor devices appear
in the form of highly-integrated microcontrollers, which comprize a
core microprocessor together with memory and analog/digital
peripheral ports. By using simple cores, these single-chip
computers are the cost- and size-effective means of adding the
brains to previous dumb widgets; such as the credit card. Using the
same winning format as the successful Springer guide, The
Quintessential PIC (R) Microcontroller, this down-to-earth new
textbook/guide has been completely rewritten based on the more
powerful PIC18 enhanced-range Microchip MCU family. Throughout the
book, commercial hardware and software products are used to
illustrate the material, as readers are provided real-world
in-depth guidance on the design, construction and programming of
small, embedded microcontroller-based systems. Suitable for
stand-alone usage, the text does not require a prerequisite deep
understanding of digital systems. Topics and features: uses an
in-depth bottom-up approach to the topic of microcontroller design
using the Microchip enhanced-range PIC18 (R) microcontroller family
as the exemplar; includes fully worked examples and self-assessment
questions, with additional support material available on an
associated website; provides a standalone module on foundation
topics in digital, logic and computer architecture for
microcontroller engineering; discusses the hardware aspects of
interfacing and interrupt handling, with an emphasis on the
integration of hardware and software; covers parallel and serial
input/output, timing, analog, and EEPROM data-handling techniques;
presents a practical build-and-program case study, as well as
illustrating simple testing strategies. This useful text/reference
book will be of great value to industrial engineers, hobbyists and
people in academia. Students of Electronic Engineering and Computer
Science, at both undergraduate and postgraduate level, will also
find this an ideal textbook, with many helpful learning tools. Dr.
Sid Katzen is Associate to the School of Engineering, University of
Ulster at Jordanstown, Northern Ireland.
