Numerous easy-to-follow exercises take you through the hardware and firmware design of a microcontroller-based system, from using the ZDS IDE for compiling and downloading programs to the microcontroller, to interfacing external devices such as LCD displays. This book is written in tutorial style and is ideal for self-study but can also be used as a textbook for undergraduate or technical courses for students with minimal programming and electronics experience. The sample programs in the book were tested on the earlier Z8F640 development board as well as the Z8F642 development boards currently available. Topics Included: . DC motor control . RS-232 serial port communication . IrDA communication . LED matrix and LCD displays . analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion . data logging to flash memory. ER -
