In other cases, the approach is quite different. For example, our PIC system uses the Dallas 1-W interface to measure temperature. The Stamp is too slow and thus we illustrate how the Analog Devices TMP04 temperature sensor may be used. Each tutorial is designed to stand on its own. However, these are not cookbook tutorials.
Every attempt is made to develop the programming concepts and to discuss the hardware.
Various other topics are also included as appears relevent. The tutorial related to barometric pressure discusses the details of the LTC1298, techniques for dealing with noise and the use of twisted pair cable. That is, each tutorial is intended to teach concepts in the context of a practical application. The text associated with each tutorial will be placed on the Web as soon as it is developed. However, I do not have the manpower to do the Figures and thus a paper copy of each tutorial will be inexpensively priced at nominally 10 cents per page.
