This introductory lab text in microprocessors for engineering, science, and computer science students shows how to use the Intel® SDK-86 design kit for scientific and engineering applications such as communication, instrumentation, and process control. Leventhal's straightforward approach makes it easy to understand tough concepts; for example, he provides an introduction to the uses of interfacing chips 8255 and 8251. Each lab is self-contained, with clear, detailed objectives, required equipment, and key terms. Over 70 fully tested examples and over 200 related problems are provided.
