Features: This book approaches the vast world of microcontrollers from a novel and unique perspective. Starting from the commonality that "microcontrollers are designed, manufactured, and applied as the control core of embedded systems," it selects three representative microcontrollers as typical examples for discussion, progressing from simple to complex and from easy to difficult. This enables readers to generalize and apply what they have learned, gaining a more fundamental understanding of the principles and applications of microcontrollers. A microcontroller (MCU), also known as a single-chip microcomputer, is designed, manufactured, and applied as the control core of an embedded system. This book, based on this commonality, explains the principles, structure, instructions, assembly language programming, basic modules and system expansion, I2C, USB, CAN bus interfaces, and C language programming of MCUs. Additionally, it introduces enhanced functions of MCUs in line with their general trends of personalization, multifunctionality, and networking. The book selects three representative microcontrollers from series such as LPC900 (80C51 core), M68HC08, and PIC as typical examples, providing a detailed introduction to their principles, performance, and applications. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in electronic information, automation, electrical engineering, and mechatronics-related majors in general universities and colleges, as well as a reference for engineering technicians in related fields.
