Book Description

Primarily intended for diploma, undergraduate and postgraduate students of electronics, electrical, mechanical, information technology and computer engineering, this book offers an introduction to microprocessors and microcontrollers. The book is designed to explain basic concepts underlying programmable devices and their interfacing. It provides complete knowledge of the Intel’s 8085 and 8086 microprocessors and 8051 microcontroller, their architecture, programming and concepts of interfacing of memory, IO devices and programmable chips. The text has been organized in such a manner that a student can understand and get well-acquainted with the subject, independent of other reference books and Internet sources. It is of greater use even for the AMIE and IETE students—those who do not have the facility of classroom teaching and laboratory practice. The book presents an integrated treatment of the hardware and software aspects of the 8085 and 8086 microprocessors and 8051 microcontroller. Elaborated programming, solved examples on typical interfacing problems, and a useful set of exercise problems in each chapter serve as distinguishing features of the book.
