Far Inside The Arduino

Have you ever wondered what really goes on inside the microcontroller on your Arduino Uno board? Do you wonder what you might be missing using the Arduino library functions? Do you want to get maximum performance with minimum memory usage? Then this book is for you All you need is a basic knowledge of electronics and programming, an Arduino Uno, Nano, or Mega board, and the desire to learn. The book covers Digital I/O, Timer/Counters, SPI, TWI (I2C), USART, ADC, Analog Comparator, Watchdog, and memory features of the microcontroller. Over 80 example programs are provided as a download from the author's website. The examples make heavy use of interrupt-driven design. Connected devices in the examples include servo and stepper motors, relays, keypads, rotary encoders, LCD and LED displays, ultrasonic distance sensors, one-wire temperature sensors, shift registers, and several I2C interface components.
