The new generation of 32-bit PIC microcontrollers can be used to solve the increasingly complex embedded system design challenges faced by engineers today. This book teaches the basics of 32-bit C programming, including an introduction to the PIC 32-bit C compiler. It includes a full description of the architecture of 32-bit PICs and their applications, along with coverage of the relevant development and debugging tools. Through a series of fully realized example projects, Dogan Ibrahim demonstrates how engineers can harness the power of this new technology to optimize their embedded designs.
With this book you will learn:
- The advantages of 32-bit PICs
- The basics of 32-bit PIC programming
- The detail of the architecture of 32-bit PICs
- How to interpret the Microchip data sheets and draw out their key points
- How to use the built-in peripheral interface devices, including SD cards, CAN and USB interfacing
- How to use 32-bit debugging tools such as the ICD3 in-circuit debugger, mikroCD in-circuit debugger, and Real Ice emulator
Key Features
- Helps engineers to get up and running quickly with full coverage of architecture, programming and development tools
- Logical, application-oriented structure, progressing through a project development cycle from basic operation to real-world applications
- Includes practical working examples with block diagrams, circuit diagrams, flowcharts, full software listings an in-depth description of each operation
