Interfacing PIC Microcontrollers provides a thorough introduction to interfacing techniques for students, engineers and hobbyists looking to take their knowledge of PIC application development to the next level. Step-by-step examples are used to illustrate a comprehensive set of interfaces, and these can be run interactively on Proteus circuit simulation software, used widely in educational institutions, to aid understanding without the need to build real hardware. Each chapter ends with suggestions for further applications, and numerous line drawings illustrate the application hardware. A companion website includes all examples in the text which can be downloaded together with a free version of Proteus's ISIS Lite. Every topic is illustrated by designs based on the 16F877, so the reader can concentrate on interfacing, and not have to deal with different microcontrollers. All the circuits are available on the associated website www.picmicros.org.uk *Comprehensive coverage of a topic not widely explored in the wealth of PIC books on the market, concentrating on the popular PIC16F877 device *Circuit simulation software allows step-by-step examples, supplied as assembly source code, to be run interactively - aiding student, technician and hobbyist learning. *A companion website will provide downloads of application files used in the book and links to associated manufacturers
