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. 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, and contains a summary of interface standards such as IEEE 488, S-100, RS-232 and current loops.
