Required Texts:


There are no required texts for this course. There are a number of links from the course web page to electronic documents and resources that should prove useful to you in executing your design projects. If you would like some suggestions for books that may prove useful references for this course, I can suggest Jan Axelson's book entitled USB Complete on designing USB peripherals and John Peatman's book entitled Design with PIC Microcontrollers on programming mid-range PICs. Both of these will eventually be on reserve at the library.
