Discover the potential of the PIC microcontroller through graded projects -- this book could revolutionise your electronics construction work!

John Morton offers a uniquely concise and practical guide to getting up and running with the PIC microcontroller. The PIC is one of the most popular of the microcontrollers that are transforming electronic project work and design.

Assuming no prior knowledge of microcontrollers and introducing the PIC's capabilities through simple projects, this book is ideal for use in schools and colleges. It is the ideal introduction for students, teachers, technicians and electronics enthusiasts. The step-by-step explanations make it ideal for self-study too: this is not a reference book -- you start work with the PIC straight away.

The revised third edition focuses entirely on the re-programmable Flash PIC microcontrollers such as the PIC16F54, PIC16F84 and the 8-pin PIC12F508 and PIC12F675 devices.
