MICROPROCESSORS: THEORY AND APPLICATIONS

Focusing throughout on fundamental concepts, this text provides an overview and insights into the full range of today’s typical 8-bit and 32-bit microprocessors and microcomputers. This book covers typical 16-bit microprocessors such as the Intel 8086 and Motorola 68000, includes an overview of typical 32-bit microprocessors such as Intel 80386/80486 and Motorola 68020/68030/68040 and surveys the basics of microprocessors with coverage of typical programming languages. Features: it addresses practical applications such as personal computers and robotics and provides details of architecture, instruction set, I. O. and system design associated with 8085, 8086 and 68000 respectively. · The book also covers the basics of peripheral interfacing, including DMA concepts relating to 68000 – such as interfacing of keyboard, CRT, printer and floppy disk of a typical microprocessor · it contains a summary of interface standards such as IEEE 488, S-100, RS-232 and current loops.
