This review is from: Programming and Customizing the OOPic Microcontroller : The Official OOPic Handbook (TAB Robotics) (Paperback)
This book is very well written. Denis spent alot of time and thought on this book. As you read through every chapter you cant help but want to put the book down and GO program. Denis is also a very reachable ( through oopic chat ) and very nice guy. I have enjoyed this book and will keep it on my reference shelf for a very long time

5.0 out of 5 stars The essential reference for using the OOPic, July 9, 2003
By 
"pkr2002" (Fernandina Beach, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Programming and Customizing the OOPic Microcontroller : The Official OOPic Handbook (TAB Robotics) (Paperback)
This book is a very useful guide to building and programming with the Savage Innovations' OOPic family of microcontrollers. The book is well-written, comprehensive, and filled with graphics and tables. The writing style conveys the material in a straightforward and engaging manner that makes the subject easy to understand for both beginners and pro's.
The OOPic -Object-Oriented Programmable integrated circuit- is a revolutionary member of the microcontroller family with novel features and ease of use. However, until now documentation has been limited to a handful of web pages, making the OOPic one of the best-kept secrets in electronics. This book- Programming and Customizing the OOPic- changes that for the better.
Whether you are a robot hobbyist or professional engineer this book is an essential reference that will save you a lot of development time.

5.0 out of 5 stars essential reference for the OOPic, July 14, 2003
By 
This review is from: Programming and Customizing the OOPic Microcontroller : The Official OOPic Handbook (TAB Robotics) (Paperback)
Let me start by saying that I am the tech rep for the oopic micro controllers.
Many of the questions that I am asked can be answered with this book. It is written with the basic user in mind and is laid out so that you can find the answers to you questions quickly and easily. If you plan on doing any oopic microcontroller-programming then I would say that this book is required reading. It will be useful in the design, programming and hardware connection phase.
