The Technical Reference Website contents range from low level
machine code tricks for several processors to command references, tips and trick for
large applications. You will find detailed information (not just links) on Scenix
and PICmicro® microcontrollers, the IBM PC parallel port, electronic
construction, and much more. We focus on the actual engineering data and details,
not on canned, commercial solutions to common problems.
The TechRef is designed as a "mass mind" for technical information.
Every page on the TechRef has a small form attached to the bottom that allows
members to add their own comments, links, and entire web pages to the site. All
members are allowed and encouraged to add their own links and comments to each
existing page or to add new pages of their own. Non-members are also excluded from
some "insider" content.
Information that you have in your mind right now, will be gone in
a very short time. TechRef membership allows you to organize and record (privately
if you wish) that information and to see information on the same subject from
others. Advertisements are welcomed, personal information is fine.
You can even add your own pages and links! We call this TANSTAAFL
web hosting. We don't charge, but we do:
