Excellent coverage of microcontrollers & their features
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I just received the book today thinking it was your basic reprinting of microcontroller data sheets with some comments about how the features really work. I wanted a book that gave me a quick overview of the controllers. However, Mike give us software guys a look at the hardware, shows us to some extent how to mock up boards for ourselves for pre-coding (while waiting for the real boards to show up). This is a really neat book. No one in my office will be allowed to borrow it, it is THAT valuable to have all the time. Excellent work Myke. -T-
A practical introduction to microcontrollers

Read this book to find out how microcontrollers work and the kinds of things you can do with them. If you're getting ready to start a project and don't know which chip to use, this book will help you decide. It even has example applications for each chip. It's an exhaustive reference that's readable and well-researched, as usual for Myke.
A highly recommended BOOK!

A must have for beginners who need complete and useful information without a lot of technical overkill. The most Popular microcontrollers are covered and after turning just a few pages you will want to start programming. The "Robotic Crowd" will also love it!
A nice quick start to different families of microcontrollers

Mr. Predko has compiled hundreds of pages of useful information. After reading it, I am more comfortable defining my MCU needs. In my opinion this book was well worth the price and wait! I especially liked the sections on the ATMEL "AVR" and MOTOROLA families.
A good reference book

If you need to learn something about microcontroller, this book is for you. As a technical book, I like the author comment and point of view that make the subject alive. Several practical examples will guide you along different microcontroller architectures: from LED blinking to a small RTOS. Development tools are also presented as well as several supplier addresses and URL.
