A vast increase in running speed can be obtained when using programs written in assembly language, which in essence entails direct programming of the computer without using a high level built-in language such as BASIC. However, this can only be undertaken by someone who has a reasonable understanding of the microprocessor and some of the other hardware used in the computer, but it is not as difficult as one might think and this book tells the story
Clements has a gift for conveying highly complex, technical information in an exceptionally clear and readable manner. Clements writing style is very student oriented, and stresses the basics of 68000 ASL while also covering the latest information on ASL later generation chips.
MICROPROCESSOR THEORY AND APPLICATIONS WITH 68000/68020 AND PENTIUM A SELF-CONTAINED INTRODUCTION TO MICROPROCESSOR THEORY AND APPLICATIONS This book presents the fundamental concepts of assembly language programming and system design associated with typical microprocessors, such as the Motorola MC68000/68020 and Intel® Pentium®. It begins with an overview of microprocessors—including an explanation of terms, the evolution of the microprocessor, and typical applications—and goes on to systematically cover: Microcomputer architecture Microprocessor memory organization Microprocessor Input/Output (I/O) Microprocessor programming concepts Assembly language programming with the 68000 68000 hardware and interfacing Assembly language programming with the 68020 68020 hardware and interfacing Assembly language programming with Pentium Pentium hardware and interfacing The author assumes a background in basic digital logic, and all chapters conclude with a Questions and Problems section, with selected answers provided at the back of the book. Microprocessor Theory and Applications with 68000/68020 and Pentium is an ideal textbook for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in electrical engineering, computer engineering, and computer science. (An instructor’s manual is available upon request.) It is also appropriate for practitioners in microprocessor system design who are looking for simplified explanations and clear examples on the subject. Additionally, the accompanying Website, which contains step-by-step procedures for installing and using Ide 68k21 (68000/68020) and MASM32 / Olly Debugger (Pentium) software, provides valuable simulation results via screen shots.
Covering routines for the most popular machines - ATT computer, the Atari 68000, the Commodore Amiga and the Macintosh - this book takes readers through all aspects of assembly language programming in a step-by-step fashion. It provides a complete, graduated approach to the entire line of 68000's, giving examples and exercises for each step so that readers can acquire all of the necessary skills. Topics include the 68000 programmer's model, explanations of number systems, subroutines and advanced assembler concepts, such as external references, linking, debugging and macros.
Delivering a solid introduction to assembly language and embedded systems, ARM Assembly Language: Fundamentals and Techniques, Second Edition continues to support the popular ARM7TDMI, but also addresses the latest architectures from ARM, including Cortex-A, Cortex-R, and Cortex-M processors-all of which have slightly different instruction sets, p
The Motorola MC 68000 family of microprocessors is used in many microcomputers ranging from single board development systems up to professional workstations. It continues to be employed in business and industrial applications. The second edition of this introduction has been totally revised to cover the latest advances in microprocessor technology.
This is a straightforward text on RISC assembly language programming for MIPS computers - the microprocessor gaining popularity due to its compact and elegant instruction set. Enabling students to understand the internal working of a computer, courses in RISC are an increasingly popular option in assembly language programming.
Explains the basic concepts of assembly language and how to apply it for use on the Amiga, and includes programming examples and discussions of the Amiga's software and hardware
