This book differs in scope from many other books on microcontrollers in that it combines in-depth coverage of
the M68HC11's applications in control, instrumentation and communication into a single source. It is designed to
help readers develop hands-on experience in both software and hardware.
Offers a unique approach, being the first text on the subject to:
Include an entire chapter on real-time programming using C.
Integrate real-world applications on such topics as motor control, power control, switching circuits, all kinds
of display hardware, communications between microcontrollers, and more.
Provide case studies on industrial machine control, engine control and barometric pressure gage application programs.
Reach beyond software aspects to offer basic hardware design examples and problems as well.
Provides a wealth of applications programs, real-world problems and projects all designed to illustrate clear
connections from the laboratory into real professional life.
Includes a special section of industrial and automotive projects which require the use of a technical library.
