Keeping students on the forefront of technology, this text offers a practical reference to all programming and interfacing aspects of the popular Intel microprocessor family.
Intel microprocessors have gained wide application in many areas of electronic communications, control systems, and desktop computer systems. This practical text is written for anyone who requires or desires a thorough knowledge of microprocessor programming and interfacing. Now in its sixth edition, "The Intel Microprocessors" is thoroughly updated to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest developments in the field of microprocessors. It serves as a reference and instructional tool for the reader to: Develop software to control an application interface microprocessor Program using DOS function calls to control the keyboard, video display systems, and disk memory in assembly language Use BIOS functions to control the keyboard, display, and various other components in the computer system Develop software that uses macro sequences, procedures, conditional assembly, and flow control assembler directives Develop software that uses interrupt hooks and hot keys to gain access to terminate and stay resident software Program the numeric coprocessor to solve complex equations Explain the differences between family members and highlight the features of each member Describe and use the real and protected modes of the microprocessor Interface memory and I/O systems to the microprocessor Provide detailed and comprehensive comparison of all family members, their software, and hardware interface Explain the function of the real-time operating system in an embedded application Explain the operation of disk and video systems Interface small systems to the ISA, VESA local, PCI, parallel port, and USB bus in a personal computer system
Fuelled by example and application, this text takes readers on an in-depth, hands-on exploration of the hardware and software - giving equal treatment to both - of the Intel 8088 microprocessor. After examining more than 60 different applications, Antonakos guides readers through the construction and programming of their own 8088-based computer. This edition expands coverage to include completely new topics while it updates treatments of existing topics, in an overall effort to allow greater access to the power of the personal computer.

Readers will be able to build and program their own 8088 single-board computer by applying the interfacing concepts and techniques presented in this book. Coverage begins with the software architecture of the 80x86 family, including the software model, instruction set and flags, and addressing modes. Abundant examples illustrate basic programming concepts such as the use of data structures, numeric conversion, string handling, and arithmetic. Hardware details of the entire 80x86 family are then examined, from pin and signal descriptions to memory and input/output system design. Advanced topics, including protected mode, WIN32 and Linux programming, and MMX technology are also introduced.
Coverage first concentrates on real-mode assembly language programming compatible with all versions of the Intel microprocessor family, and compares and contrasts advanced family member with the foundational 8086/8088. This building block presentation is effective because the Intel family units are so similar that learning advanced versions is easy once the basics are understood.
Primarily intended for the undergraduate students of electronics and communication engineering, computer science and engineering, and information technology, this book skilfully integrates both the hardware and software aspects of the 8086 microprocessor. It offers the students an up-to-date account of the state-of-the-art microprocessors and therefore can be regarded as an incomparable source of information on recently developed microprocessor chips. The book covers the advanced microprocessor architecture of the Intel microprocessor family, from 8086 to Pentium 4. The text is organized in four parts. Part I (Chapters 1-7) includes a detailed description of the architecture, organization, instruction set, and assembler directives of microprocessor 8086. Part II (Chapters 8-11) discusses the math coprocessor, multiprocessing and multiprogramming, the different types of data transfer schemes, and memory concepts. Part III (Chapters 12-15) covers programmable interfacing chips with the help of extensive interfacing examples. Part IV (Chapters 16-18) deals with advanced processors--from 80186 to Pentium 4. This well-organized and student-friendly text should prone to be an invaluable asset to the students as well as the practising engineers. KEY FEATURES: Gives elaborate programming examples to develop the analytical ability of students. Provides solved examples covering different types of typical interfacing problems to develop the practical skills of students. Furnishes chapter-end exercises to reinforce the understanding of the subject.
This fourth edition of "The Intel Microprocessors 8086/8088, 80186, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium, and Pentium Pro Processor: Architecture, Programming, and Interfacing" is a practical book for anyone interested in all programming and interfacing aspects of this important microprocessor family.
This comprehensive text provides an easily accessible introduction to the principles and applications of microprocessors. It explains the fundamentals of architecture, assembly language programming, interfacing, and applications of Intel’s 8086/8088 micro-processors, 8087 math coprocessors, and 8255, 8253, 8251, 8259, 8279 and 8237 peripherals. Besides, the book also covers Intel’s 80186/80286, 80386/80486, and the Pentium family micro-processors. The book throughout maintains an appropriate balance between the basic concepts and the skill sets needed for system design. A large number of solved examples on assembly language programming and interfacing are provided to help the students gain an insight into the topics discussed. The book is eminently suitable for undergraduate students of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, and Information Technology.
