Introduction to Microelectronic Systems: The PIC 16F84 Microcontroller

by Martin P. Bates

The introduction of the PIC Microcontroller family of devices is an important development in microelectronic technology. This highly illustrated book uses the PIC 16F84 to introduce students to microelectronic systems. Introduction to Microelectronic Systems assumes no prior knowledge of microprocessors and only a little of electronics. The PIC itself is covered in Part B, step by step, leading to demonstration programs using labels, subroutines, timer and interrupts. Part C then shows how applications may be developed using Windows software and some hardware prototyping methods.



Numerous working programs to try, and hardware to build
Assumes minimal prior knowledge
Uses real time system example
