Pic32 Microcontrollers and the Digilent Chipkit: Introductory to Advanced Projects

PIC32 Microcontrollers and the Digilent chipKIT: Introductory to Advanced Projects 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.

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.

With this book you will learn:

• State-of-the-art PIC32 32-bit microcontroller architecture
• How to program 32-bit PIC microcontrollers using MPIDE, MPLAB, and C language
• Core features of the chipKIT series development boards
• How to develop simple projects using the chipKIT MX3 development board and Pmod interface cards
• how to develop advanced projects using the chipKIT MX3 development boards
