123 Pic Microcontroller Experiments For The Evil Geniuspdf Better [TOP]

For the true “Evil Genius,” a static PDF isn’t enough. You can augment your PDF using modern tools to make it truly .

If you are grabbing the PDF, I recommend pairing it with (the free software from Microchip). The book was written for older compilers, so the "better" way to learn today is to read the theory in the book but adapt the code to run on a modern PIC (like the PIC16F18877 or the classic PIC16F877A). For the true “Evil Genius,” a static PDF isn’t enough

| Original | Modern Replacement (Better for PDF use) | |----------|------------------------------------------| | Parallel port programmer | PICkit 3, PICkit 4, or programmer (USB) | | PIC16F84 (obsolete, expensive) | PIC16F628A or PIC16F877A (still available, direct replacements) | | MPLAB 8.x | MPLAB X IDE + XC8 compiler (free version) | | Assembly only | Use C for faster prototyping, but book’s assembly examples can be translated. | The book was written for older compilers, so

The "Evil Genius" series is known for its fun, slightly "wicked" application of technology. Notable experiments mentioned in various editions and related materials include: slightly "wicked" application of technology.

If you want the spirit of 123 Experiments but with modern PICs (like the PIC16F18877 or PIC16F18446), get these PDFs instead (legally from the publisher or Amazon Kindle):

If you have already downloaded a PDF and it is bad, here is how to fix it.

The final chapters are full projects you can actually use.
