V knige rassmatrivaetsya shirokiy krug voprosov, svyazannyh s prakticheskim primeneniem populyarnyh 16-bitnyh mikrokontrollerov PIC24 v sistemah obrabotki dannyh i upravleniya oborudovaniem. Privodyatsya mnogochislennye primery programmirovaniya neslozhnyh apparatno-programmnyh sistem obrabotki analogovoy i tsifrovoy informatsii s primeneniem periferiynyh moduley mikrokontrollerov PIC24F. V kontekste razrabotannyh primerov privodyatsya neobhodimye svedeniya iz teorii, chto sposobstvuet luchshemu ponimaniyu materiala knigi. Vse privedennye v knige apparatno-programmnye proekty razrabotany i provereny na otladochnom module Explorer16Development Board firmy Microchip i mogut sluzhit osnovoy dlya sozdaniya sobstvennyh proektov.
