Andrew Parr's Programmable Controllers provides a thoroughly practical introduction to the use of PLCs in industry, covering programming techniques alongside systems-level design issues. In the third edition a masterclass series of real-world case studies have been added to illustrate typical engineering challenges - and model solutions.

This eBook on Arduino: Tips and Tricks to Learn Arduino Quickly and Efficiently is a guide on what you know-and if you don’t know that is okay, on how to handle your Arduino board.
Many programmers have either heard or are currently using Arduino as a board to help them understand programming better. Engineers and new programmers use Arduino as a guide board to help them understand what programming is since most of them probably have no clue how to program their devices. This can be most likely seen in first-year students in campus or colleges around the world.
With Arduino as a guiding device, you can increase your knowledge or skills from programming to coding. This is where this fantastic eBook comes in.
Inside, you will find the knowledge, as a beginner or if this is your first time trying to learn about Arduino; the definitions of Arduino and how long it has been several years since the first board was made and the changes and/or versions released have made tremendous impact in the community, that is the programming and coding community.

"The Raspberry Pi was first created in 2012, with the intention of making digital creation accessible to all. Since then, more than 14 million units have been sold to adults and children alike. Pis of different kinds are used in classrooms, libraries, research laboratories, and of course, hackerspaces all over the world. Builders, coders and hackers are using this amazing device to create everything from doomsday switches to fruit ripening detectors. In this new Raspberry Pi Annual, we’ll bring you all the basics with step-by-step tutorials in setting up your Pi and advice from Pi pros. We’ll also show you the secrets of Pi interfacing, how to create a virtual reality setup, some exciting Python projects – and much more. Welcome to the Raspberry Pi revolution! "

 

В настоящем пособии содержится материал по современным методам проектирования цифровых систем на базе программируемых логических схем (ПЛИС) с использованием языков описания аппаратуры HDL — VHDL и VERILOG. Рассмотрены основы проектирования синхронных схем, схемотехники ПЛИС, систем автоматизации проектирования и моделирования цифровой аппаратуры.
Представлены основные элементы синтаксиса и семантики обоих языков, особенности структурных и функциональных описаний аппаратуры, специфика синтезабельных описаний. Особое внимание уделено рассмотрению общих элементов HDL и примерам их использования.

Describing the use of displays in microcontroller based projects, the author makes extensive use of real-world, tested projects. The complete details of each project are given, including the full circuit diagram and source code. The author explains how to program microcontrollers (in C language) with LED, LCD and GLCD displays; and gives a brief theory about the operation, advantages and disadvantages of each type of display.

This book presents the fundamental concepts of assembly language programming and interfacing techniques associated with typical microcontrollers. As part of the second edition's revisions, PIC18F assembly language and C programming are provided in separate sections so that these topics can be covered independent of each other if desired. 
This extensively updated edition includes a number of fundamental topics. Characteristics and principles common to typical microcontrollers are emphasized. Interfacing techniques associated with a basic microcontroller such as the PIC18F are demonstrated from chip level via examples using the simplest possible devices, such as switches, LEDs, Seven-Segment displays, and the hexadecimal keyboard. In addition, interfacing the PIC18F with other devices such as LCD displays, ADC, and DAC is also included. Furthermore, topics such as CCP (Capture, Compare, PWM) and Serial I/O using C along with simple examples are also provided. 

Microchip continually updates its product line with more capable and lower cost products. They also provide excellent development tools. Few books take advantage of all the work done by Microchip. 123 PIC Microcontroller Experiments for the Evil Genius uses the best parts, and does not become dependent on one tool type or version, to accommodate the widest audience possible. Building on the success of 123 Robotics Experiments for the Evil Genius, as well as the unbelievable sales history of Programming and Customizing the PIC Microcontroller, this book will combine the format of the evil genius title with the following of the microcontroller audience for a sure-fire hit.

 This Book is collection of 51 microcontrollers-based projects, which appearead in Electronics For You from 2001 to 2013. It is a compilation of 51 construction projects tested at EFY Labs. This is the second edition of the Microcontroller Based Projects book. Therefore, it has all the materials covered in the first edition, and also include 25 new projects with some new microcontrollers not covereed in the first edition. This book, a collection of 51 microcontroller-based projects, which appeared in Electronics For You during 2001-2012 is brought out for the benefit of our new readers.The book has been divided into five sections same as in the first edition viz : Security Systems, Domestic Applications, Industrial Applications, Measurement, Display Systems and Robotics. However, many new projects have been introduced in second edition.

How to interface several LCD's to a Raspberry Pi using only Python. A few years ago I wrote a book entitled “Arduino LCD Projects”. I have been working on writing a similar LCD projects book for the Raspberry Pi for a while. However getting LCD’s to work with the Raspberry Pi has not turned out to be that easy to do. There is no easy reference source, there are many varying standards, and there is required software that has numerous dependencies. In this book we will be using Python and the only dependency is that SPI be enabled. I have a fairly large collection of LCD’s to try to get to work with the Raspberry Pi. Eight of them, mostly on the left side in the next picture, are text based. The others are graphics based LCD’s. Some of the graphics screens are serial, some are 8 bit and two of them are 16 bit devices.
As always building and using the following designs, circuits and software is solely the responsibility of the end user. Follow all safety rules; the safe operation of these devices is the responsibility of the reader. There is no warranty included or implied. If you are not familiar with using the Raspberry Pi and LCD’s then start with something simpler like my LED projects book.

Create innovative programs and fun games on your tiny yet powerful Raspberry Pi. In this book, electronics guru Simon Monk explains the basics of Raspberry Pi application development, while providing hands-on examples and ready-to-use scripts. See how to set up hardware and software, write and debug applications, create user-friendly interfaces, and control external electronics. Do-it-yourself projects include a hangman game, an LED clock, and a software-controlled roving robot.
