NU32 Book Errata
From Mech
Jump to navigationJump to searchBelow are errata for the book "Embedded Computing and Mechatronics with the PIC32 Microcontroller," Kevin M. Lynch, Nicholas Marchuk, and Matthew L. Elwin, Newnes/Elsevier 2015. For succinctness, typos are other minor errors that cannot lead to confusion are not reported here.
Throughout the book
- Due to fixed-width fonts chosen for typesetting code, sometimes two consecutive underscores _ _ appear as a single long line, and sometimes two consecutive minus signs -- appear as a single long line. For example, some code listings using the _ _ ISR macro appear to have a single long line before the ISR.
Chapter 21: Sensors
- The Greek letter psi in the summation block of Figure 21.22 (bottom) should be an uppercase sigma.
Chapter 22: Digital Signal Processing
- page 354, second-to-last sentence: should say "ratio G of their amplitudes"
Appendix A: A Crash Course in C
- page 523: unit8_t should be uint8_t
Appendix B: Circuits Review
- page 595: In the first sentence of "Application: Switch debouncing", it should read "clean falling edge from V to GND," not "clean falling edge from GND to V."
- page 602: The sentence after the first set of bullets should say "When , the power dissipated by the transistor is ."
