Microprocessors and Interfacing

Microprocessors and Interfacing is a textbook for undergraduate engineering students who study a course on various microprocessors, its interfacing, programming and applications.

The book in eighteen chapters provides a very brief overview of 8085 processors, followed by a detailed discussion of 8086 architecture, programming and interfacing concepts. The book also provides a brief treatment of 8088 processors bringing out its architectural difference in relation to 8086. The thrust of this book is on 8086 processors. Subsequently, the book discusses the 8-bit 8051 and 16-bit 8096 microcontrollers. The last chapter on advanced processors briefs on 80186, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium, PowerPC, PIC, RISC& CISC, SUN SPARC and ARM microcontrollers.

Providing a balance between theory and practice, the book is interspersed with complete ALP codes, review questions, programming and design based exercises.
