  • Microcontroller Cookbook

    • 2nd Edition
    • Mike James
    • English
    Microcontroller Cookbook guides you through programming, interfacing, development work and circuit design using two of the most popular microcontroller families. The cookbook approach makes this an ideal book for anyone who has to get up and running quickly, so it is ideal for hard-pressed professionals and advanced electronics hobbyists. Enough theory is included to make this a suitable text for introductory microelecronics courses up to first year degree level. New sections of reviews make this an ideal text for courses or independent study. The new edition offers additional material on C programming and the use of compilers, an expanded section on macros, and a new section on the development of source code.

  • 8051 Microcontrollers

    Hardware, Software and Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • David Calcutt + 2 more
    • English
    The 8051 family of microprocessors are the universally accepted standard which all electronics undergraduates need to know about. Students with only an elementary understanding of microprocessors will find this text especially useful.'8051 Microcontrollers' provides a practical and readable description of the 8051 family of microcontrollers, including 16-bit devices, and their use in practical applications. Often students and technicians are reliant on manufacturers' data books and application manuals to learn about these ubiquitous devices. This book fulfils the need for an easily understood account of the subject and uses worked examples, real-life applications, summary sections and exercises to demonstrate the relevance of the theory to everyday domestic and commercial situations.

  • Microcontroller Projects in C for the 8051

    • 1st Edition
    • Dogan Ibrahim
    • English
    This book is a thoroughly practical way to explore the 8051 and discover C programming through project work. Through graded projects, Dogan Ibrahim introduces the reader to the fundamentals of microelectronics, the 8051 family, programming in C, and the use of a C compiler. The specific device used for examples is the AT89C2051 - a small, economical chip with re-writable memory, readily available from the major component suppliers. A working knowledge of microcontrollers, and how to program them, is essential for all students of electronics. In this rapidly expanding field many students and professionals at all levels need to get up to speed with practical microcontroller applications. Their rapid fall in price has made microcontrollers the most exciting and accessible new development in electronics for years - rendering them equally popular with engineers, electronics hobbyists and teachers looking for a fresh range of projects. Microcontroller Projects in C for the 8051 is an ideal resource for self-study as well as providing an interesting, enjoyable and easily mastered alternative to more theoretical textbooks.

  • Debugging Embedded Microprocessor Systems

    • 1st Edition
    • Stuart Ball
    • English
    Debugging Embedded Microprocessor Systems provides techniques for engineers, technicians, and students who need to correct design faults in embedded systems. Using real-world scenarios, designers can learn practical, time-saving ways to avoid and repair potentially costly problems. Prevention is stressed. In this book, the author addresses hardware and software issues, including up-front design techniques to prevent bugs and contain design creep. Practical advice includes descriptions of common tools which can be used to help identify and repair bugs, as well as test routines. RTOS and embedded PC environments are also covered. Each chapter of Debugging Embedded Microprocessor Systems opens with an example design problem which illustrates real-world issues such as design changes, time pressures, equipment or component availability, etc. Case studies of past debugging projects are presented in the final chapter.

  • Linear Integrated Circuits

    • 1st Edition
    • Joseph Carr + 1 more
    • English
    The linear IC market is large and growing, as is the demand for well trained technicians and engineers who understand how these devices work and how to apply them. Linear Integrated Circuits provides in-depth coverage of the devices and their operation, but not at the expense of practical applications in which linear devices figure prominently. This book is written for a wide readership from FE and first degree students, to hobbyists and professionals. Chapter 1 offers a general introduction that will provide students with the foundations of linear IC technology. From chapter 2 onwards there is thorough coverage of the operational amplifier - perhaps the most common of all linear IC devices. The book continues to develop the theme of op-amps over several chapters and then switches to non-op-amp forms. Finally, because microwave linear IC devices (MMIC chips) are becoming increasingly important, a chapter is devoted to high-frequency devices (VHF and up). All of this is clearly presented with useful examples. Joseph J. Carr is a prolific writer and working scientist in the field of radar engineering and avionics architecture. He has written over 25 books and regularly contributes to electronics magazines.

  • The Art of Programming Embedded Systems

    • 1st Edition
    • Jack Ganssle
    • English
    Embedded systems are products such as microwave ovens, cars, and toys that rely on an internal microprocessor. This book is oriented toward the design engineer or programmer who writes the computer code for such a system. There are a number of problems specific to the embedded systems designer, and this book addresses them and offers practical solutions.

  • Embedded Controller Forth For The 8051 Family

    • 1st Edition
    • William H. Payne
    • English
    The purpose of this book is to present the technology requied to develop hardware and software for embedded controller systems at a fraction of the cost of traditional methods. Included in the book are hardware schematics of 8051 family development systems (single board and bussed 8051 microcontroller). Source code for both the 8086 and 805 family FORTH operating systems is published in the book. Binary images of the opeating systems can be generated from teh source code using the metacompiler also contained in the book. The book can be seen as a "toolbox" includingg all the necessary hardware and software information to be used in constructing 8051-based controller systems.
