Microcomputer Engineering - Gene H. Miller - 1993 - Hardcover - Prentice Hall

Author Gene H. Miller presents the fundamentals of microprocessor hardware and software hi the context of microcomputers as control devices. A balanced treatment of programming and hardware design is covered by presenting topics such as machine language, assembly language, and program design on the software side, and memory, input/output, and system expansion on the hardware side.
More importantly, Microcomputer Engineering encourages hands-on learning with end-of-chapter programming examples that can be implemented easily on a microcomputer trainer. (Larger projects for laboratory assignments are located in an appendix.)

Additional Content Highlights:
* Covers the operation of both the Motorola 68HC11EVB Microcomputer Trainer
as well as all of the required support software for using a personal computer, editor, and assembler with the trainer.
* Stresses good programming design with an entire chapter devoted to effective programming approaches and sound software design.
* Contrasts good and bad programming practices and uses structured programming throughout the examples.
* Includes a wealth of detailed examples and explanations of machine instructions.
* Provides solutions to selected exercises for learning reinforcement.
