Packed with stuff

This is a good book with a dabble of info on just about everything. I have only begun to make use of its potential. Keep in mind it is a pocket reference, so it's geared toward people who are already along their way knowing PICs fairly well. If you fall into that category this book is worth its cost without a doubt.
Part of a Great One-Two Punch

I finished "Programming and Customizing PICmicro Microcontrollers" and I thought it was the best technical book I have ever read. Now that I have worked through the book and started to design my own PICmicro circuits, I wanted to find something that had all the information I needed.I ordered this book with some trepedation because I was nervous that it would be the big PICmicro book simply reformatted. I should have trusted Myke more; the book has very little overlap to the big PICmicro book and complements it very well and is perfect for somebody designing circuits. Combined with the big PICmicro book, you will have everything you need to work with the Microchip PICmicro!
(Almost) Everything you need for the PIC

This is a huge book (almost 700 pages) and I bought it because I liked Myke's new "Programming and CUstomizing PICmicro Microcontrollers" so much. This book is a nicely condensed version of the big book, but also has a lot of additional material that makes it indispensible for somebody who is working with the PIC. When I first saw this book at B & N, I thought it would be a condensed version of the big book, but Myke has done a good job of providing additional reference information (such as MS-DOS interrupt interfaces) that you will need to develop your own applications. Like the big book, Myke has referenced all four PIC architectures and provided information on the instruction sets and different registers along iwth their addresses. What I don't like about the book is the number of code examples and no diskette and CD-ROM. It is nice to have all this information, but I don't want to type it all in. Could a "Credit Card" CD-ROM be sold with it (and others like it) in the future?This is not a beginner's book - while it might be useful to have while you are learning the PIC, I think you should start with Myke's big Programming and Customizing book.
A nice compact Microchip PIC Reference Book.

I haven't seen a lot of interest in this book yet and I just wanted to point out to people what a great little reference book this is. Predko has nicely summarized all the information that is required by PIC developers. I was surprised to discover the book is almost 700 pages in length. Going through the book, there wasn't any information that I felt I needed that wasn't included. Along with PIC instruction sets, register definitions and addresses, there is a lot of source code that covers virtually every aspect of PIC interfacing. There is code for handling interrupts, interfacing to the built in serial ports, timers and so on. Along with PIC specific information, there is a lot of information on different devices that the PIC can interface to (including the PC) as well as several chapters devoted to the information (like ASCII tables) and formulas that I am always looking for when I am developing my own applications. This book will really clean off your workbench!
