Practical Aspects of Embedded System Design using Microcontrollers

This book features a learning-by-doing approach to teach readers how to build embedded systems using microcontrollers, both at home and in the office. It includes case studies developed around the PIC16F877 and AT 89S52, today's most popular microcontrollers.

Second in the series, Practical Aspects of Embedded System Design using Microcontrollers emphasizes the same philosophy of Learning by Doing and Hands on Approach with the application oriented case studies developed around the PIC16F877 and AT 89S52, today's most popular microcontrollers. Readers with an academic and theoretical understanding of embedded microcontroller systems are introduced to the practical and industry oriented Embedded System design. When kick starting a project in the laboratory a reader will be able to benefit experimenting with the ready made designs and 'C' programs. One can also go about carving a big dream project by treating the designs and programs presented in this book as building blocks. Practical Aspects of Embedded System Design using Microcontrollers is yet another valuable addition and guides the developers to achieve shorter product development times with the use of microcontrollers in the days of increased software complexity.

Going through the text and experimenting with the programs in a laboratory will definitely empower the potential reader, having more or less programming or electronics experience, to build embedded systems using microcontrollers around the home, office, store, etc. Practical Aspects of Embedded System Design using Microcontrollers will serve as a good reference for the academic community as well as industry professionals and overcome the fear of the newbies in this field of immense global importance.

Clear and precise circuit diagrams along with complete listing of C source code of more than 25 live case studies Design based on the popular representative microcontrollers of both RISC and CISC architectures Devices chosen for the application development are from the industry leading vendors such as Atmel, Microchip, Philips, Maxim and so on A lucid flow of the resource material and the participatory style makes the readers friendly with the subject Simulate-ability of the code boosts the confidence of the readers and enable them to go one step forward towards testing the same on the hardware platform Hands on Approach skipping theoretical details makes the book unique in nature

Autorentext

The proposed book will complement Springer's rich collection of books on embedded systems and especially the book "Exploring C for Microcontrollers - A Hands on Approach" authored by the same group in 2007
