Microcomputer Structures

This easy-to-read introduction to microprocessors and the issues involved in designing microprocessor systems offers thorough coverage of hardware design problems, using the Motorola 6809 and 68000 as examples. Basic concepts are presented first in a machine-independent fashion followed by a detailed presentation of selected commercial products. The book is organized to allow lab experiments early in the course. The authors discuss interface and bus standards, emphasizing the reasoning behind subsystem designs. The text includes chapter objectives, highlighted terms and glossary, suggested lab exercises, selected bibliography, review questions and problems. End-of-chapter problems are divided into primary and advanced levels.Vranesic, Zvonko G. is the author of 'Microcomputer Structures', published 1989 under ISBN 9780030097393 and ISBN 0030097398.
