Synopsis

For a one-semester, undergraduate-level course in Introductory Microprocessor and Microcomputers. A background in DC and AC circuits, digital logic circuits, and the hexadecimal number system is recommended.

Providing a solid foundation in the technology of microcomputers, this “hands-on” text helps students develop an understanding of the hardware components of a microcomputer system and the role of the software to control that hardware. Full of valuable troubleshooting tips, it focuses on three compatible 8-bit microprocessor chips―the Intel 8080 and 8085, and the Zilog Z-80―and uses them as models to help students learn the differences between RAM and ROM and how these two types of memory are interfaced to the microprocessor; to understand how an input or output port works; and to explore the construction of a serial interface.
