Embark on a journey into the world of embedded programming. This book introduces you to the 32bit PIC and will teach you how the main functions of C programming work and can be used with a PIC micro. My main aim in writing this book is to introduce you to the 32-bit micro and help you understand how to program them in the C programming language. I also want to show you that you can program them and that you can make a career as an embedded programmer. I hope that after reading this book, you will have developed your understanding of C and that you will have the confidence to go and develop your own programs.

A one-stop reference for the would-be embedded programmer, you'll explore the electronics needed for a variety of programs as well as how to use different devices with the PIC. The book starts with downloading the environment and creating a simple project, one that uses different oscillators, Phase Lock Loop, and circuitry needed to create the different system clocks—an easy entry point to this exciting environment. You'll also review the MPLABX integrated development environment (IDE) and see how to program the 32Bit PIC, which can be adapted to different PICs.

Throughout subsequent chapters, you’ll learn how to use a range of programs that use PIC modules such as the SPI, I2C, UART communication modules, the ADC module, the Capture, Compare, and Pulse Width Modulation module, and the RTCC, Real Time Clock and Calendar Module.

What You'll Learn:
Create a project in MPLABX
Configure the different clock frequencies that are used in the 32bit PIC
Build a variable delay subroutine to be used in a simple traffic lights program
Use the MAX 7219 driver IC to control the 8by8 matrix display
Program an I2C expander module to control the display on a LCD

Prerequisites:
As to any prerequisites you need before reading this book, there are none. I will assume you are a complete novice, and I will explain every step as you progress through the book. Every instruction will be analyzed to explain how the C instruction works and how it achieves what we want from the instructions. The only things you will definitely need to use this book are as follows.

Who This Book Is For:
Readers who want to try their hand at embedded programming, newcomers to programming the PIC 32, programmers who want to look into using MPLAB Harmony 3, and programmers who want to understand how C instructions work with respect to 32bit PIC. Also students who are studying for an engineering qualification.
