PIC32 Microcontrollers and the Digilent Chipkit: Introductory to Advanced Projects

PIC32 Microcontrollers and the Digilent Chipkit: Introductory to Advanced Projects

<p><i>PIC32 Microcontrollers and the Digilent chipKIT: Introductory to Advanced Projects</i> will teach you about the architecture of 32-bit processors and the hardware details of the chipKIT development boards, with a focus on the chipKIT MX3 microcontroller development board. Once the basics are covered, the book then moves on to describe the MPLAB and MPIDE packages using the C language for program development. The final part of the book is based on project development, with techniques learned in earlier chapters, using projects as examples.</p> <p>Each projectwill have a practical approach, with in-depth descriptions and program flow-charts with block diagrams, circuit diagrams, a full program listing and a follow up on testing and further development. </p> <p>With this book you will learn:</p> <ul><li>State-of-the-art PIC32 32-bit microcontroller architecture</li><li>How to program 32-bit PIC microcontrollers using MPIDE, MPLAB, and C language</li><li>Core features of the chipKIT series development boards</li><li>How to develop simple projects using the chipKIT MX3 development board and Pmod interface cards</li><li>how to develop advanced projects using the chipKIT MX3 development boards</li></ul><ul><li>Demonstrates how to use the PIC32 series of microcontrollers in real, practical applications, and make the connection between hardware and software programming</li><li>Usage of the PIC32MX320F128H microcontroller, which has many features of the PIC32 device and is included on the chipKIT MX3 development board</li><li>Uses the highly popular chipKIT development boards, and the PIC32 for real world applications, making this book one of a kind</li></ul>
