The basis of 'FILE-O-PIC' is a collation PIC functioninformation which is easily referenced. In each sec-tion there are source code examples showing how toset-up and use the various registers. Other information includes hex, binary and ASC11 conversion tables, basic of RS232, product lists andavailability, development tools and order codes. Theintention is to assist engineers who write software bygiving them easy access to relevant information.The PICs covered in this first edition are all the16Cxx, 12C50x, 12C67x and 16C5x, families, futuresupplements will include 17Cxx and PIC14000. Asnew products and families are introduced by

The basis of 'FILE-O-PIC' is a collation PIC functioninformation which is easily referenced. In each sec-tion there are source code examples showing how toset-up and use the various registers. Other information includes hex, binary and ASC11 conversion tables, basic of RS232, product lists andavailability, development tools and order codes. Theintention is to assist engineers who write software bygiving them easy access to relevant information.The PICs covered in this first edition are all the16Cxx, 12C50x, 12C67x and 16C5x, families, futuresupplements will include 17Cxx and PIC14000. Asnew products and families are introduced by

Microchip, additional supplements will be released to keep the 'FILE-O-PIC' up to date.A typical example might be A/D conversion - simply turn to the A/D section, thenchoose the relevant page for that products- say 16C711. The page for the ADCONOregister shows any associated registers e.g. ADCON1, TRISA and the default/reset val-ues within the register. Also within the A/D section are examples on single channel, multiple channel, polled and interrupt driven conversion.The 'FIL-O-PIC' is available in three options:-

Motor Cycle TuningJohn Robinson


Ì A set of three books covering the subject of tuning motorcycles written by the tech-nical editor of Performance Bikes, John Robinson

Chassis TuningJohn Robinson has set out a logical sequence to build a new bike, or to modify anexisting one to make the most use of its power. It is a subject which is difficult toquantify but a machine which can corner faster or is more manouverable, will be morecompetitive, more fun or easier and safer to get through traffic.Two-Stroke TuningThe great attraction of the two-stroke is its enormous potential contrasted with itsappealing simplicity. A stock roadster can be turned into a racing machine but only ifyou know what you are doing. This updated second edition shows how to evaluateyour engine, how to assess what work you can undertake yourself, and just what isbest left to a specialist.Four-Stroke TuningEngine development is slow and expensive, but can be very rewarding if only for thesheer pleasure of using a motor which is crisp, responsive, and perfectly set up. Thissecond edition book explains in detail how various stages of engine tune are reached,and describes typical development work with enough theory to devise a practicaldevelopment programme.

Motorcycle Techbooks

Motorcycle Electrical Manual (3rd Edition)

Tony Tranter is an acknowledged expert on motorcycle electrical systems, having pio-neered the training of motorcycle mechanics to City and Guilds standard. His book isnow in its third edition and has become standard reading for students attending cours-es on motorcycle engineering and also for DIY mechanics wishing to unravel the mys-teries of electrical systems. This new edition brings coverage right up to date, with additional information on ABS,fuel injection and engine management. Much more information has been included onpractical electrical testing and the use of test equipment, plus electrical fault finding.Motorcycle Workshop Practice (2nd Edition)

The Workshop Practical Manual provides information on how to use tools and testequipment, carry out minor engineering work and discusses metalworking, welding,painting, plating and polishing techniques to name but a few. It also includes essentialreference information on thread and fastener sizes, fuel ratings, lubricants types andchain sizes.
