Programming 16-Bit PIC Microcontrollers in C: Learning to Fly the PIC 24
By Lucio Di Jasio
Author Lucio Di Jasio, a PIC expert at Microchip, offers unique insight into this revolutionary technology, guiding the reader step-by-step from 16-bit architecture basics, through even the most sophisticated programming scenarios.
This books common-sense, hands-on, practical approach begins simply and builds up to more challenging exercises, using proven C programming techniques. Experienced PIC users and newcomers to the field alike will benefit from the texts many thorough examples, which demonstrate how to nimbly side-step common obstacles, solve real-world design problems efficiently, and optimize code for all the new PIC24 features.
The new 16-bit PIC24 chip provides embedded programmers with more memory, more speed, and more peripherals than ever before, creating the potential for more powerful cutting-edge PIC designs. This book teaches readers everything they need to know about these chips: how to test them, how to program them, and how to debug them, in order to take full advantage of the capabilities of the new PIC24 microcontroller architecture. This book includes handy checklists to help readers perform the most common programming and debugging tasks.
