The newcomer to Microchip’s PIC microcontrollers invariably gets an LED to flash as their first attempt to master this technology. You can use just a simple LED indicator in order to show that your initial attempt is working, which will give you confidence to move forward. This is how the book begins — simple programs to flash LEDs, and eventually by stages to use other display indicators such as the 7-segment display, alphanumeric liquid crystal displays and eventually a colour graphic LCD. As the reader progresses through the book, bigger and upgraded PIC chips are introduced, with full circuit diagrams and source code, both in assembler and C. In addition, a small tutorial is included using the MPLAB programming environment, together with the EAGLE schematic and PCB design package to enable readers to create their own designs using the book’s many case studies as working examples to work from.

Met behulp van de lessen in dit boek leert u hoe u zelf een microcontroller kunt programmeren. We maken daarbij gebruik van JAL, een gratis maar uiterst krachtige programmeertaal voor PIC microcontrollers, die in de hobbywereld erg populair is. We starten aan het absolute begin, en bouwen vandaar de kennis op. U heeft dus geen voorkennis nodig: iedereen kan met dit boek aan de slag. Wanneer u alle lessen volgt (dat wil zeggen: de oefeningen ook daadwerkelijk maakt) dan kunt u wanneer u het boek uit heeft zelf PIC microcontroller programma’s schrijven, en programma’s van anderen lezen. JAL opdrachten U leert de functie van JAL opdrachten zoals include, pin, delay, forever loop, while loop, case, exit loop, repeat until, if then, en het gebruik van functies, procedures en timer- en poortinterrupts. JAL programma’s U laat een LED knipperen, maakt een tijdschakelaar, meet de stand van een potmeter, maakt geluiden, voorkomt contactdender en regelt de helderheid van een LED. En uiteraard leert u debuggen: hoe u in uw programma’s fouten kunt vinden en oplossen. Hardware U leert verschillende onderdelen zoals PIC microcontroller, potmeter en kristal herkennen, en hoe u een PIC microcontroller aan moet sluiten en met uw PC moet verbinden. U maakt hierbij gebruik van een steekbord zodat u de opstelling gemakkelijk kunt aanpassen om verder te experimenteren.
