Welcome

Welcome to the PIC24 pilot’s Logbook. At the moment this is little more than an experiment as I am absolutely new to the world of blogs.

The idea is to use this blog to offer a growing body of material that extends and completes the material offered in the book “Programming 16-bit microcontrollers in C. Learning to Fly the PIC24″. Of course there will be a bit of “flying” stuff as well …

Programming 16-bit microcontrollers in C. Learning to fly the pic24

During the last few months I have received a number of emails from you, the readers, asking for specific advise on additional features of the PIC24 and dsPIC families or for clarifications on the material presented in the book. While in the past I was answering only individually, in the future I plan on using this blog to broadcast the replies (or part of them) especially those that address issues of general interest.

The blog will also give me the possibility to receive more of your feedback directly online, although this is NOT a forum, I would not have the energy and time to manage one, besides, Microchip already offers 16-bit forums on the official website.

I also want to warn you that this is NOT a “democracy” but it is more like a “dictatorship” if you will, so you are welcome to post your comments and offer your opinion, but I will be the one deciding what we are going to do on a day by day basis (or more likely week by week) depending on the amount of “fun” time available in my schedule.

Stay tuned… clear skies!
