Principles And Applications Of Microcomputers

Principles and Applications of Microcomputers is a comprehensive textbook, which exemplifies the fundamental principles and applications of microcomputers with the most popular 8051 microcontroller and the Keil C51-MDK (microcomputer development kit). After reading this book, you will be able to design various microprocessor- or microcomputer-based application systems. The main features of this book are as follows: -- Partition the MCS-51 instruction set into many pedagogic groups suitable for entry-level readers and then illustrate them with an abundant number of examples. -- Introduce MCS-51 C programming with most popular topics and then balance the programming of assembly-language and C programs in the design of MCS-51 microcontroller applications. -- Divide the MCS-51 system into the software model and the hardware model. The software model is first introduced and then the hardware model follows. This way greatly facilitates the reader to study a microcomputer system. -- Discuss in detail features and applications of SRAM and Flash. The design of memory modules and the timing consideration related to the MCS-51 are also involved. -- Deal with the interrupt handling, system reset, and watchdog, as well as power control and management of the MCS-51 system. -- Detail I/O concepts and structures, serial/parallel data transfer and control, and ADC/DAC circuits, as well the structures and features of MCS-51 I/O ports, including serial port, SPI, and I2C. Besides, various timers/counters are dealt with in depth. -- Address the structures, functions, and applications of various timers/counters and programmable timers. -- Involve design principles of keyboards circuits, including both polling and interrupt methods, as well as circuit modules and applications of LED and LCD displays. -- Provide an abundance of review questions to each section to help readers evaluate their understandings about the topics introduced in the section. This book can be used as the textbook for the following courses and others: Assembly-Language Programming, Fundamental Principles of Microcomputers, or Principles and Applications of Microcomputers.

Providing an introduction to microprocessor and microcomputer theory and application, this edition features new treatment of 16- and 32-bit microprocessors such as the Intel 8086 and the Motorolla 6800. It discusses assembly language programming, Input/Output interface of typical 16-bit microprocessors and printer and CRT interfacing. Also included is a brief review of digital principles and circuits for those with little background in these areas. End-of-chapter problems to reinforce students' understanding of the concepts are incorporated into the text.

This book gives a comprehensive coverage of different aspects of microcontroller-based system design and development in a generalized manner. Basic ideas and fundamental concepts common to all micro-controllers have been introduced before giving specific examples using the 8051 microcontroller, which is the most popular microcontroller in use today. Coverage of the three important issues such as hardware, software and hardware-software integration has been provided in a balanced manner. For easy understanding of the subject, a bottom-up approach has been followed. The book is designed for the undergraduate students of electrical engineering, computer science and engineering, and electronics and communication engineering. KEY FEATURES: Provides many pedagogical features such as learning objectives, introduction, examples, summary, fill in the blanks and chapter-end exercises to assist teaching and learning. Pays special attention to the interfacing of I/O devices for human interaction, and I/O devices for process control and instrumentation, which are important in the context of embedded systems. Gives comprehensive information about development aids and trouble-shooting techniques for the development of microcontroller-based systems. Includes a number of real-life application examples, with complete details of hardware and software implementation, after fabricating prototype models in the laboratory.
