"Basic Stamp" is the brand name of a chip that is widely used in the prototyping of microcontrollers - the "brains" of electronic devices. This manual teaches the principles and processes of microcontroller development by demonstrating how to program the Basic Stamp. It seeks to serve the needs of those desiring to learn the principles and processes of microcontroller development including beginner, intermediate and advanced embedded systems developers. The opening section explains the basics of microcontrollers for the professional electronic technician and for the hobbyist. The second section provides practical examples and Basic Stamp programming tips for intermediate users - including details about memory allocation and operators. For advanced Stamp users, the last section of the book explains direct PIC assembly language programming. The APP-1 PIC Programmer software, provided on the companion CD-ROM, converts Basic Stamp programs into the more efficient PIC chips assembly language.
