Fundamentals of Digital Logic and Microcomputer Design, haslong been hailed for its clear and simple presentation of theprinciples and basic tools required to design typical digitalsystems such as microcomputers. In this Fifth Edition, the authorfocuses on computer design at three levels: the device level, thelogic level, and the system level. Basic topics are covered, suchas number systems and Boolean algebra, combinational and sequentiallogic design, as well as more advanced subjects such as assemblylanguage programming and microprocessor-based system design.Numerous examples are provided throughout the text. Coverage includes: Digital circuits at the gate and flip-flop levels Analysis and design of combinational and sequentialcircuits Microcomputer organization, architecture, and programmingconcepts Design of computer instruction sets, CPU, memory, and I/O System design features associated with popular microprocessorsfrom Intel and Motorola Future plans in microprocessor development An instructor's manual, available upon request Additionally, the accompanying CD-ROM, contains step-by-stepprocedures for installing and using Altera Quartus II software,MASM 6.11 (8086), and 68asmsim (68000), provides valuablesimulation results via screen shots. Fundamentals of Digital Logic and Microcomputer Design is anessential reference that will provide you with the fundamentaltools you need to design typical digital systems.

The fundamentals and implementation of digital electronics are essential to understanding the design and working of consumer/industrial electronics, communications, embedded systems, computers, security and military equipment. Devices used in applications such as these are constantly decreasing in size and employing more complex technology. It is therefore essential for engineers and students to understand the fundamentals, implementation and application principles of digital electronics, devices and integrated circuits. This is so that they can use the most appropriate and effective technique to suit their technical need. This book provides practical and comprehensive coverage of digital electronics, bringing together information on fundamental theory, operational aspects and potential applications. With worked problems, examples, and review questions for each chapter, Digital Electronics includes: information on number systems, binary codes, digital arithmetic, logic gates and families, and Boolean algebra; an in-depth look at multiplexers, de-multiplexers, devices for arithmetic operations, flip-flops and related devices, counters and registers, and data conversion circuits; up-to-date coverage of recent application fields, such as programmable logic devices, microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital troubleshooting and digital instrumentation. A comprehensive, must-read book on digital electronics for senior undergraduate and graduate students of electrical, electronics and computer engineering, and a valuable reference book for professionals and researchers.

Introduces students to microprocessor fundamentals. The text relates the fundamentals to three real-world examples: Intel's 8085, Motorola's 6800, and the 6502 chip used by Apple Computers. This edition includes a student version of the TASM cross-assembler software program, experiments for Digital Computer Electronics and more.
