======PIC Programming====== =====PIC Your Personal Introductory Course===== by John Morton\\ ISBN 0 7506 5038 9\\ Purchased from [Amazon|http://www.amazon.com] @ £14.99This is an introductory book for the beginner. It commences with fairly simple problems using the less complicated versions of the [Microchip|http://www.microchip.com] PICs. It progresses through to version of PIC having [[EEProms]] and A/D converters. I think that this is a good book to learn [[assembler]] programming for use with PICs. However I confess to not having read any other introductory book on the subject!Unfortunately the book does not cover some of the instruction set of the [[PIC18F452]]. This could of course be supplemented by downloads from Microchip. ======Embedded Design with the PIC18F452 Microcontroller====== by John B. Peatman\\ ISBN 0 13 046213-6\\ Purchased from [Amazon|http://www.amazon.com] @ £35.99\\ As you can see above this is not a cheap book. However, as I progress with trying to understand [[MIOS]] I am finding that I refer to it more and more. As you can see from its title, it is written specifically for the [PIC18F452] that is the current [[microprocessor]] used in MIOS.The main advantage of this book is that it covers in detail the following topics relating to the [[PIC18F452]] under the chapter headings:\\ - CPU Architecture\\ - Instruction Set\\ - LCD Displays\\ - Interrupts and Interrupt Timing\\ - Analog to Digital Conversion\\ - I/O Pin Considerations\\ - Serial Interfacing\\ This is not a beginners book! A beginner will need a gentler introduction such as the first book.
