"Microprocessors, besides being the heart of computers, also have a wide range of applications in devices such as portable telephones, CDs, VCRs, automobiles, as well as in controlling processes, traffic lights and instrumentation systems. Designed for students, engineers and electronic/computer technicians, this book provides the guide to understanding the software and hardware aspects of microprocessors, and the design and testing aspects of microprocessor-based systems. The focus is on the theory and applications of the 8-bit microprocessor where the Motorola MC6809 is used as a model example of such 8-bit microprocessor-based systems."--BOOK JACKET. "All the chapters contain numerous illustrative worked examples to assist with the understanding of the material presented, and a wide range of problems with their worked solutions are also included for students to undertake. The knowledge gained from this book will enable students to design, construct, test and evaluate their own microprocessor systems for any desired specifications."--BOOK JACKET.

Microprocessor Data Book, Second Edition focuses on the available types of microprocessors and microcomputers, including description of internal architecture, instruction set, main electrical data, and package details of these instruments. The book first elaborates on 4-bit and 8-bit microprocessors and microcomputers. Discussions focus on Advanced Micro Devices Am2900 series, Hitachi HMCS40 series, Motorola MC6801 and MC6803, Motorola MC6809 series, Rockwell R6500/1 series, and RCA 1800 series. The text then examines 16-bit and 32-bit microprocessors and microcomputers. Topics include Intel 80286 microprocessor, Motorola 68010, Texas Instruments TMS9980, Zilog Z8000 series, Motorola 68020 processor, and National 32032. The manuscript takes a look at other support devices, peripheral device controllers, and serial I/O devices, including Motorola MC6850 ACIA, Texas Instruments TMS9902 ACC, Thomson EFCIS EF9365/6, and floppy disk controllers. The publication is a valuable source of information for computer science experts and researchers interested in microprocessors and microcomputers.

This book introduces the advantages of parallel processing and details how to use it to deal with common signal processing and control algorithms. The text includes examples and end-of-chapter exercises, and case studies to put theoretical concepts into a practical context.

Microprocessor Architectures and Systems: RISC, CISC, and DSP focuses on the developments of Motorola's CISC, RISC, and DSP processors and the advancements of the design, functions, and architecture of microprocessors. The publication first ponders on complex instruction set computers and 32-bit CISC processors. Discussions focus on MC68881 and MC68882 floating point coprocessors, debugging support, MC68020 32-bit performance standard, bus interfaces, MC68010 SUPERVISOR resource, and high-level language support. The manuscript then covers the RISC challenge, digital signal processing, and memory management and caches. Topics include implementing memory systems, multitasking and user/supervisor conflicts, partitioning the system, cache size and organization, DSP56000 family, MC88100 programming model, M88000 family, and the 80/20 rule. The text examines the selection of a microprocessor architecture, changing design cycle, semiconductor technology, multiprocessing, and real-time software, interrupts, and exceptions. Concerns include locating associated tasks, MC88100 interrupt service routines, single- and multiple-threaded operating systems, and the MC68300 family. The publication is a valuable reference for computer engineers and researchers interested in microprocessor architectures and systems.

This comprehensive and thoroughly updated text now in its second edition continues to provide the complete knowledge about the Intel's 8085 microprocessors, its programming and concept of interfacing of memory, input/output devices and programmable peripheral chips. Organized in four parts, Part I (Chapters 1-9) covers a review of the analog and digital signals as well as hardware and software related aspects of microprocessor 8085. Part II (Chapters 10 and 11) discusses memory and input-output concepts, analog to digital and digital to analog converters and various memory and IO address decoding techniques. Part III (Chapters 12-17) explains the programmable interfacing chips with extensive interfacing examples. Part IV (Chapters 18 and 19) presents a brief discussion on other 8-bit microprocessors along with 16 and 32-bit Intel Processors. Each topic has been supported with numerous examples that will help students apply the concepts to other microprocessors in the course at advanced level. This book is designed specifically for the undergraduate students of electronics and communication engineering, computer science and engineering, and information technology. New to this Edition: Chapters on "Architecture and Organization of Microprocessor" and "Instruction Set of 8085 Microprocessor" have been revised and modified substantially. Multiple choice questions have been added to all the chapters.
