This is the only book written that covers the Basic Atom modules and chips. The Basic Atom is a Microchip PIC Microcontroller with a custom self programming bootloader installed.

The Atom BASIC compiler is a real compiler not an interpreter and is free to download. The Atom BASIC compiler offers all the features of the PIC16F876A and PIC16F877A thru simple embedded BASIC commands.

Many times faster than a Parallax Basic Stamp and a great first step to the world of Embedded BASIC programming. You can program modules or just the individual chip.

Chuck's book covers it all with 13 projects and details onthe inner workings of the Atom.

This book was written back in 1998 and is still one of the most popular Microchip PIC books on the market. Chuck covers both the PICBASIC and PICBASIC PRO compilers as he shows you through project examples how to get started programming in embedded BASIC.

This book has sold thousands of copies and the reader feedback has been nothing but positive. There have since been other books written on PICBASIC and PICBASIC PRO but this is still the most desired book for the embedded BASIC crowd.

The PICBASIC and PICBASIC PRO compilers offer much higher speed programming on par with many of the popular C compilers but still give you the simplicity of the BASIC language.
