C Programming for the PIC Microcontroller: Demystify Coding with Embedded Programming

via Apress

Description

Go beyond the jigsaw approach of just using blocks of code you don’t understand and become a programmer who really understands how your code works. 

Starting with the fundamentals on C programming, this book walks you through where the C language fits with microcontrollers. Next, you'll see how to use the industrial IDE, create and simulate a project, and download your program to an actual PIC microcontroller. 

You'll then advance into the main process of a C program and explore in depth the most common commands applied to a PIC microcontroller and see how to use the range of control registers inside the PIC. With C Programming for the PIC Microcontroller as your guide, you’ll become a better programmer who can truly say they have written and understand the code they use.

What You’ll Learn
  • Use the freely available MPLAX software 
  • Build a project and writea program using inputs from switches 
  • Create a variable delay with the oscillator source
  • Measure real-world signals using pressure, temperature, and speed inputs
  • Incorporate LCD screens into your projects
  • Apply what you’ve learned into a simple embedded program
Who This Book Is For 

Hobbyists who want to move into the challenging world of embedded programming or students on an engineering course.
