Table of Contents

Chapter 1: IntroductionThis chapter introduces the reader to the aims and objectives of the book. It then covers some of the fundamentals of what is a micro-processor based system and how a micro-controller is different. It then covers the historic development of the 'C' programming language for PIC controllers. Chapter 2: Our First ProgramThis chapter covers the following: Process of creating a project in MPLABX and Writing a simple 'C' program and adding comments to the instructions. It explain what the configuration words for the PIC are and how to set them. It explains what the PORTS are and how we use the TRIS registers to set the PORTS. It covers what are the main aspects of a 'C' program. It covers how to set the internal oscillator. Simulating a basic program within the IDE and simulating the program with a suitable ECAD software. After reading this chapter you should be able to create a project and write a program that uses inputs from switches and turns on outputs. Chapter 3: Updating the ProgramIn this chapter we will cover the IF Then Else instructions and saving the old program. Chapter 4: Creating a DelayIn this chapter we will one of the most fundamental aspects of any micro-processor based system. How to overcome the fact that micros go too fast. This chapter covers the following: Controlling the Timer0 Creating and calling subroutines After reading this chapter you will be able to create a one second delay with any of the oscillator source and then create a variable delay. You will also learn how to create and use a subroutine Chapter 5: Applying What We've LearnedIn this chapter we are going to apply what we have learnt in a simple program. It is probably the most common program that all new embedded programmers start with. It will take you through a structured approach to design programs.After reading this chapter you will be able to program s simple model of a set of traffic lights. Chapter 6: Real World InputsIn this chapter we will look at using the PIC to measure real world signals such as signals from pressure, temperature and speed. It will cover the following: Using the three registers that control the ADC. Receiving an analogue input and displaying it as a binary value. After reading this chapter you will be able to use analogue inputs. Chapter 7: How to Use The Liquid Crystal DisplayThis chapter you should be able to use the LCD it covers the following;: How to set up the LCD How to display text on the LCD How to display numbers on the LCD How to use arrays and pointers Chapter 8: Creating a Header FileThis chapter covers how to create a header file. It then uses a header file in a program to control the LCD in 8 bit mode.
