This is the only comprehensive guide to using PIC microcontrollers to drive small motors. This easy-to-follow tutorial explores the techniques - both in hardware and software - that you need to understand in order to run small motors with PIC microcontrollers. All material is covered in a non-mathematical way so anyone interested in computer control of motors can do so even with a minimal technical background. "Running Small Motors with PIC Microcontrollers" contains more than 2,000 lines of PicBasicPro code and dozens of circuit diagrams with the focus on controlling motors. Hands-on tutorials, program listings, and resources are included.
