The volume focusses on intermediate concepts of the PIC16F1847-Based PLC project, and covers arithmetical operation ability of PLCs, logical function performers and operations like AND, NAND, OR, NOR. Further, it explains shift and rotate macros moving bits in a register to right or left, and selection macros enabling one value to be selected from several given values according to certain criteria. Demultiplexer circuit is illustrated, which is used to send a signal to one of many devices. Finally, it explains decoder, priority encoder and conversion macros. All the concepts are supported using flowcharts. Aimed at researchers and graduate students in electrical engineering, power electronics, robotics and automation, sensors, this book:
Presents arithmetical and logical macros to carry out arithmetical and logical operations to be used for 8-bit or 16-bit variables and/or constant values.
Provides shift and rotate macros to do arithmetical or logical shift and rotate operations to be used for 8-bit or 16-bit variables.
Proposes selection macros to enable the user to do 8-bit or 16-bit move, load, selection, maximum, minimum, limiting, multiplexing and byte multiplexing operations.
Develops demultiplexer macros, decoder macros and priority encoder macros to be used as combinational circuits.
Presents conversion macros to provide functions to convert given data from one format to another one.

He was with Nigde University, Turkey, from 1993 to 2010 in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering as a Research Assistant, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor. He was a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, at Melikşah University in Kayseri, Turkey from 2011 to 2016. He was a Visiting Researcher with INRIA, University of Metz and University of Rennes, France, in 1999, with University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada, in 2003, and with Xidian University, Xi'an, China, in 2013, 2015 and 2019. Since 15 April 2020, he has been serving as a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, at Yozgat Bozok University in Yozgat, Turkey. He has published 50 conference papers and 85 journal and magazine papers, 70 of which are indexed by Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE). He has published two books in Turkish and one book in English by CRC Press (Taylor & Francis Group). According to Publons, his H-Index is 15 and his papers have been cited 1269 times by the papers indexed in the SCIE. His current research interests include design and implementation of discrete event control systems modeled by Petri nets and, in particular, deadlock prevention/liveness enforcing in flexible manufacturing systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), microcontrollers (especially PIC microcontrollers), and design of microcontroller-based PLCs. Dr. Uzam has been serving as a reviewer for prestigious journals and conferences. According to Publons, the number of his verified reviews is 70.
