Overview

Learn about PIC microcontrollers and how to develop programs for them in the C programming language using the mikroC for PIC compiler. The PIC C Book contains numerous illustrations and practical examples that will allow you to enjoy your work with PIC microcontrollers plus a detailed description of the PIC16F887. As this is the PIC supplied with the EasyPIC6 development board this book makes an invaluable accompaniment to this and our EasyPIC6 C starter pack.
