Programming the PIC Microcontroller with MBasic

Parts for the experiments in this book are available from many suppliers. In this appendix's detailed chap-ter-by-chapter component section, I'll identify sources for components that you might have trouble finding; otherwise any of the larger new component dealers should have everything you need. Incidentally, DigiKey and Mouser, at least, crosslink their on-line catalogs with manufacturer datasheets.
