This book provides comprehensive coverage of the Z80 microprocessor, carefully integrating hardware and software topics with practical laboratory exercises. The book provides a complete, easy-to-understand introduction to the architecture and interfacing of microprocessor-based systems, assembly language programming the Z80, interfacing peripherals, programmable I/O devices, applications, and design and more.
This text is intended for microprocessor courses at the undergraduate level in technology, engineering, and computer science. Now in its third edition, it provides a comprehensive treatment of the microprocessor, covering both hardware and software based on the Z80 microprocessor family. This edition preserves the focus of the earlier editions and includes the following changes: Chapters have been revised to include the most recent technological changes in 32- and 64-bit microprocessors and 8-bit microcontrollers. Several illustrative programs have been added throughout the text. Complete data sheets for the LM 135 temperature sensor and LCD panel, and a complete list of Z80 instructions with machine cycles, T-states, and flags are included in the Appendixes. Appendix G, which contains answers to selected questions, has been added.
Covers Programming the Z80 in Assembly Language & Teaches Both Novices & Advanced Programmers to Write Complete Z80 Programs. Requires No Prior Knowledge of Programming
An introduction to microprocessors, updated to cover recent models. Designed as a first course in microcomputers, this new edition covers the hardware and machine language software of the 8080/8085 and Z-80 8-bit microprocessors. It explores various aspects of microcomputer technology using examples of 8080/8085 and Z-80 applications.
Nowadays, embedded systems - computer systems that are embedded in various kinds of devices and play an important role of specific control functions, have permeated various scenes of industry. Therefore, we can hardly discuss our life or society from now onwards without referring to embedded systems. For wide-ranging embedded systems to continue their growth, a number of high-quality fundamental and applied researches are indispensable. This book contains 13 excellent chapters and addresses a wide spectrum of research topics of embedded systems, including parallel computing, communication architecture, application-specific systems, and embedded systems projects. Embedded systems can be made only after fusing miscellaneous technologies together. Various technologies condensed in this book as well as in the complementary book "Embedded Systems - Theory and Design Methodology", will be helpful to researchers and engineers around the world.
