The Microcontroller Idea Book: Circuits Programs & Applications Featuring the 8052-Basic Single-Chip Computer | Date: 05 May 2011, 16:12
|
A hands-on introduction to microcontroller project design with dozens of example circuits and programs. Presents practical designs for use in data loggers, controllers, and other small-computer applications. Example circuits and programs in the book are based on the popular 8052-BASIC microcontroller, whose on-chip BASIC programming language makes it easy to write, run, and test your programs. With over 100 commands, instructions, and operators, the BASIC-52 interpreter can do much more than other single-chip BASICs. Its abilities include floating-point math, string handling, and special commands for storing programs in EPROM, EEPROM, or battery-backed RAM.

Summary: I dont recommend this book
Rating: 1
I was wondering if any professional likes to work on microcontroller with BASIC Language and with so many external RAMs and ROMs ( run time BASIC interpreter .. .. i cant think of it !!! ) and let the microcontroller interpret lines one by one in the real time. I work on 8051 family microcontroller and obviously for the real time effciency reason, I use C and Assembly, I bought this book reading reviews and my poor observation did not catch that it was on 8052-BASIC. So I was shocked when it reached me. But yes, If you really wanna do some experiment on BASIC language with microcontroller, then this is the book you are looking for, no doubt, but If you wanna start your experience with microcontroller, I would suggest the book "Microcontroller Projects in C for the 8051" by Dogan Ibrahim. I think as an electrical engineer, professionals should always pick C and Assembly language for real time demand and this is the best book for beginners to start on C that I have found by researching the book market for a long time up to now.
Summary: A very good sourse for projects on embedded applications
Rating: 5
Embedded applications are increasing by the day. Many new areas are being explored. This book really makes things easier and it encourages to undertake good projects which could later be very useful in everyday applications. Full of ideas and suggestions. Although the microcontroller 8051/8052 is considered as outdated, this book is a good start. Once the basic techniques for the same are grasped switching over to other newer controller chips will be a cakewalk.
This book (along with other similar titles by author) bridges the gap betwwen academic persuit and real life applications. For every idea discussed, an innovative student can think of say 3 more new ideas. This is not just a book that gives a few projects, which you do and that's the end of the story. It allows you to evolve new ideas and enough grounding is provided such that you can implement the same with confidence and 100% success rate.
-For students in this field this book is a must.
Summary: Another winner
Rating: 5
Jan Axelson is known for her clarity of writing and for her ability to make sophisticated technology "user friendly". This book is another winner in a line of excellent technical books.
Summary: Great book for an introduction to Microcontrollers
Rating: 5
Although the 8052 processor is very outdated, it still can be used to control many things in this ever-so-hi-tech-world. The 8052 proves to be a very affordable microcontroller, rather than buying a full blown computer or PC104-based computer. This book is very introductory, but it does assume you know basic electronics. The 8052 is no where near as complex as an FPGA, but the programming rituals can prepare you before you learn the basics of programming the FPGA(theory and your thinking of logic). The experience gained by playing around with the 8052 sure gave me the important thinking processes needed for other design projects at work.
Summary: This is the best book based on the 8052-BASIC chip
Rating: 5
This is the best book based on the 8052-BASIC chip, and is a must have for anyone (hobbyist or professional) who is the planning on work with the 8051 or another microcontroller. Believe me this book is the good first step.
