Chopra Ramesh. Microcontroller Based Projects

EFY Enterprises, 2010. — 209 p.A microprocessor, the brain of a computer, generally falls into two categories. The first category is normally found in the applications where system performance such as processing power is critical. The second category, often called microcontroller, is found in applications where space, power and rapid development are more critical as compared to processing power. A microcontroller is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory and programmable input/output ports.
This book, a collection of microcontroller-based projects, which appeared in Electronics For You during 2001-2009 is brought out for the benefit of our new readers. It is a compilation of 26 construction projects tested at EFY Lab. The book also comes with a CD, which contains datasheets of major components used in the projects, source codes and related files pertaining to the various projects. This will help readers to go through the details of each component and copy the codes to their PCs directly without typing them. In addition, the CD carries useful books, tutorials and other goodies.
