Synopsis

This volume addresses the technologies and methods used in interfacing analogue devices to microprocessors, providing in-depth coverage of practical control applications and op amp examples. A companion to "Embedded Microprocessor Systems: Real World Design", this book focuses on measurement and control of analogue quantities in embedded systems that are required to interface to the real world. It includes important considerations for both hardware and software systems, when linking analogue and digital devices.

About this title

Review

Provides hard-to-find information on interfacing analog devices and technologies to the purely digital world of embedded microprocessors. Gives the reader the insight and perspective of a real embedded systems design engineer, including tips that only a hands-on professional would know. Covers important considerations for both hardware and software systmes when linking analog and digital devices.-Embedded Technology ...a comprehensive source on interfacing the real world to microprocessors should prove invaluable to embedded systems engineers, students, technicians, and hobbyists. Anyone involved in connecting the analog environment to their digital machines, or troubleshooting such connections will find this book especially useful. - Embedded Technology In general, for all the sections, there are plenty of simple diagrams and also the maths is kept to a simple level....I like this book and recommend it as an introduction to the subject for home use, students and SW Engineers. - Chris Hills in the ACCU magazine CVu
