Advanced PIC Microcontroller Projects in C: From USB to RTOS with the PIC 18F Series

Radio Telemetry is the process of data communication using the radio waves. It is used in many applications where it may be necessary to read signals from environmental sensors or to control a device or a piece of hardware remotely. Typical application areas of radio telemetry are in factory automation, robotics, medical applications, environmental monitoring and so on. In environmental monitoring it may be required to measure various environmental parameters, such as temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, pollution level, wind speed, wind direction etc. using a remote station to transmit the collected data to a main receiving station for processing.Nearly all radio telemetry applications use some kind of processor to read, format, and transmit/receive the data. Because of their low cost and high processing power, microcontrollers or microprocessors are commonly used in most radio telemetry applications.This book is written for people who want to learn more about radio telemetry applications and microcontroller programming using the PIC18F series of microcontrollers. The design of a radio telemetry based mini weather station is considered as an example system in the book where the developed system can measure the temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, altitude, dew point, carbon monoxide level, nitrogen dioxide concentration, air quality level, wind direction, and wind speed.The book has been written with the assumption that the reader has taken a course on digital logic design, and has been exposed to writing programs using at least one high-level programming language. Although not essential, knowledge of the C programming language will be useful. Also, familiarity with at least one member of the PIC series of microcontrollers (e.g. PIC16 or PIC18) will be an advantage. The knowledge of assembly language programming is not required because all the projects in the book are based on using the C language.

<p>Every mobile phone includes a GSM/GPRS modem which enables the phone to communicate with the external world. With the help of the GSM modems, users can establish audio conversations and send and receive SMS text messages. In addition, the GPRS modem enables users to connect to the internet and to send and receive large files such as pictures and video over the internet. This book is aimed for the people who may want to learn how to use the GSM/GPRS modems in microcontroller based projects. Two types of popular microcontroller families are considered in the book: PIC microcontrollers, and the Arduino. The highly popular mid-performance PIC18F87J50 microcontroller is used in PIC based projects together with a GSM Click board. In addition, the SIM900 GSM/GPRS shield is used with the Arduino Uno projects. Both GSM and GPRS based projects are included in the book. The book will enable you to control equipment remotely by sending SMS messages from your mobile phone to the microcontroller, send the ambient temperature readings from the microcontroller to a mobile phone as SMS messages, use the GPRS commands to access the internet from a microcontroller, send temperature readings to the cloud using UDP and TCP protocols and so on. It is assumed that the reader has some basic working knowledge of the C language and the use of microcontrollers in simple projects. Although not necessary, knowledge of at least one member of the PIC microcontroller family and the Arduino Uno will be an advantage. It will also be useful if the user has some knowledge of basic electronics. All project software is available to download for free at the Elektor website.</p>

The Chinese company Espressif Systems has recently developed a new microcontroller chip named the ESP32. In addition to all the ESP8266 features, the ESP32 provides Bluetooth communications capability, larger SRAM data memory, more GPIOs, more interface signals, touch sensor, temperature sensor, higher CPU speed, CAN bus connectivity, higher resolution ADC converters, DAC converters, and security features. This book is an introduction to the ESP32 processor and describes the main hardware and software features of this chip. The main aim of the book is to teach the reader how to use the ESP32 hardware and software in practical projects, especially using the highly popular ESP32 development board. Many basic, simple, and intermediate level projects are given in the book based on the ESP32 DevKitC development board, using the highly popular Arduino IDE and also the MicroPython programming language. The projects have been organized in increasing levels of difficulty. The ESP32 hardware kit is available from Elektor, especially prepared for the book. The kit contains all the components used in the projects in this book. With the help of this hardware kit it should be easy and fun to build the projects in the book.

This book is about DC electric motors and their use in Arduino and Raspberry Pi Zero W based projects. The book includes many tested and working projects where each project has the following sub-headings: - Title of the project - Description of the project - Block diagram - Circuit diagram - Project assembly - Complete program listing of the project - Full description of the program The projects in the book cover the standard DC motors, stepper motors, servo motors, and mobile robots. The book is aimed at students, hobbyists, and anyone else interested in developing microcontroller based projects using the Arduino Uno or the Raspberry Pi Zero W. One of the nice features of this book is that it gives complete projects for remote control of a mobile robot from a mobile phone, using the Arduino Uno as well as the Raspberry Pi Zero W development boards. These projects are developed using Wi-Fi as well as the Bluetooth connectivity with the mobile phone. Readers should be able to move a robot forward, reverse, turn left, or turn right by sending simple commands from a mobile phone. Full program listings of all the projects as well as the detailed program descriptions are given in the book. Users should be able to use the projects as they are presented, or modify them to suit to their own needs.

Motor Control - Projects with Raspberry Pi and Arduino

This book is about the Raspberry Pi 3 computer and its use in various control and monitoring applications. The book explains in simple terms and with tested and working example projects, how to configure the Raspberry Pi 3 computer, how to install and use the Linux operating system, and how to write hardware based applications programs using the Python programming language. The nice feature of this book is that it covers many Raspberry Pi 3 based hardware projects using the latest hardware modules such as the Sense HAT, Swiss Pi, MotoPi, Camera module, and many other state of the art analog and digital sensors. An important feature of the Raspberry Pi 3 is that it contains on-board Bluetooth and Wi-Fi modules. Example projects are given in the book on using the Wi-Fi and the Bluetooth modules to show how real-data can be sent to the Cloud using the Wi-Fi module, and also how to communicate with an Android based mobile phone using the Bluetooth module. The book is ideal for self-study, and is intended for electronic/electrical engineering students, practising engineers, research students, and for hobbyists. It is recommended that the book should be followed in the given Chapter order. Over 30 projects are given in the book. All the projects in the book are based on the Python programming language and they have been fully tested. Full program listings of every project are given in the book with comments and full descriptions. Experienced programmers should find it easy to modify and update the programs to suit their needs.
