Programming the Basic Atom Microcontroller!

Author Chuck Hellebuyck delivers again to teach the reader how to program Microchip PICs in Basic. This time he introduces the popular and powerful Basic Atom Microcontroller based modules. 

Through his unique way of making the complicated understandable, Chuck takes the reader through the inner workings of the Basic Atom by explaining the Microchip PIC Microcontroller and its roll in the Atom module. From there Chuck explains the various PIC based Basic Atom modules and how to use the Basic Atom compiler. Chuck then delivers 13 projects the reader can build and learn from. The reader can then use this knowledge to develop their own Basic Atom projects.
