eBook Description:
Programming PIC Microcontrollers with XC8: Mastering Classical Embedded Design, 2nd Edition
Are you tired of copying and pasting code into your embedded projects? Do you want to write your own code from scratch for microcontrollers and understand what your code is doing without all the frills and math? This Programming PIC Microcontrollers with XC8, 2nd Edition book uses a practical approach to show you how to develop embedded systems with 8-bit PIC microcontrollers using the XC8 compiler.
Written for those who want more than an Arduino, but less than the more complex microcontrollers on the market, this new edition is fully updated and covers embedded design principles such as foreground-background loops and event driven programming. You’ll learn how to interface with things like Motors, PID loop control and writing a browser-based monitoring system! This book is heavy on code, schematics, and images and focuses less on the theoretical aspects of using microcontrollers.
Coverage includes writing a display driver, using the DAC for a multitude of waveform generation techniques, and building 8-bit IoT systems, real time telemetry, a countdown timer, and new peripherals. These topics are important if you want to learn more about PIC microcontroller devices as a whole. You’ll also see the advantage that MPLAB X offers by running on Windows, Mac and Linux environments. You don’t need to be a command line expert to work with PIC microcontrollers, so you can focus less on setting up your environment and more on your application.
What You’ll Learn
- Set up the MPLAB X and XC8 compilers for microcontroller development
- Use GPIO and PPS
- Review EUSART and Software UART communications
- Use the eXtreme Low Power (XLP) options of PIC microcontrollers
- Explore wireless communications with WiFi and Bluetooth
If you want to move beyond the Arduino, Programming PIC Microcontrollers with XC8, 2nd Edition is your complete guide to understanding modern PIC microcontrollers.
