A Small Basic Approach There are many different PC programming languages available on the market. Some have beautiful names; some have easy to use development tools. Others have incredible power. They all have one thing in common: they assume that you have, or want to have, a knack for technology and difficult to read commands. In this book we take a practical approach to programming. We assume that you simply want to write a PC program, and write it quickly. Not in a professional environment, not in order to start a new career, but for plain and simple fun... or just to get a task done. Therefore we use Small Basic. You will have an application up and running in a matter of minutes. You will understand exactly how it works and be able to write text programs, graphical user interfaces, and advanced drivers. It is so simple; you don't even need to be an adult!

The Basics, New Ideas & Applications Build digital electronics from the ground up—and take it all the way to practical circuits you can use. This book guides you through the core principles of digital technology with a strongly hands-on approach. You’ll begin with the essentials: signals, devices for working with them, and what "logic 0" and "logic 1" mean in real hardware. Simple demonstration setups made from easy-to-find parts (LEDs, diodes, resistors, switches) help you see how logic behaves, making the theory click before you move on. From there, you’ll explore a wide range of logic elements and how they’re implemented, including classic logic families such as TTL and CMOS. The fundamentals section covers the building blocks of digital systems: flip-flops, Schmitt triggers, registers, counters and dividers, encoders/ decoders, multiplexers/demultiplexers, plus A/D and D/A conversion and timing circuits. Next, the book invites you into "new ideas" in digital electronics—universal logic elements, unconventional approaches (including thyristor-based and fractional logic), and creative logic functions that can inspire original designs. Finally, a large, well-organized collection of application circuits turns knowledge into projects: electronic switches and selectors, pulse generators, PWM regulators, frequency multipliers/dividers, phase shifters, and digital filters. Study it deeply, and you’ll gain not only understanding—but the ability to design and debug digital circuits independently.

PIC und AVR verstehen In diesem Buch werden wir uns ausschließlich mit 8-Bit-Mikrocontrollern beschäftigen, und zwar mit Mikrocontrollern der 8-Bit-PIC- und der 8-Bit-AVR-Mikrocontroller-Linien. Bei der PIC-Familie handelt es sich dabei um PIC10, PIC12, PIC16 und PIC18; bei der AVR-Familie um ATtiny, ATmega und ATxmega. Die vorgestellten 8-Bit-Chips sind für sehr viele Anwendungen vollkommen ausreichend und preislich auch attraktiv. Durch die Lektüre des Buches erhalten Sie ein fundiertes Wissen über die genannten 8-Bit-Mikrocontroller, über ihre Architektur, ihre Pinbelegungen und über ihre Programmierung. Weil wir uns in diesem Buch mit den Grundlagen der Architektur der PICs und AVRs vertraut machen möchten, werden wir auch für alle PIC- und AVR-Anwendungen Assembler einsetzen, denn die Assembler-Sprache erlaubt es, die Technik im Detail kennenzulernen. Wenn man wirklich wissen möchte, was sich im Mikrocontroller abspielt, greift man zu Assembler. Damit hat man die beste Gelegenheit, sehr nah an den Kern zu kommen. Und wenn man schon einen Mikrocontroller-Typ kennengelernt und verstanden hat, ist es bei dem nächsten deutlich einfacher, auch wenn er von einem anderen Hersteller kommt. Bei anderen Programmiersprachen bleibt die Technik immer ziemlich tief versteckt. Die Assembler-Beispiele sind so einfach gestaltet, dass sie jeder mit den im Buch aufgezeigten Programmiertechniken erstellen kann. Weil es sich um einfache Beispiele handelt, werden wir sie alle auf einer universellen Lochrasterplatine realisieren. Manche sind auch auf einem Experimentier-Breadboard umsetzbar.
