Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Using the currently popular, powerful, yet easy to understand Motorola 68HC11 microcontroller as a representative example, this text provides a comprehensive introduction to the concepts, principles, and techniques of microprocessors and microprocessor-based systems. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Back Cover

The sixth edition of Microprocessors and Microcomputers: Hardware and Software provides a comprehensive introduction to the concepts, principles, and techniques of microprocessors and microprocessor-based systems. The book focuses on the elements and features of the popular and powerful 68HC 11.

This edition retains all of the valuable learning aids of the previous editions, including:

  • Extensive use of clearly explained illustrated examples.
  • Clear, uncluttered diagrams and flowcharts.
  • A glossary of key terms within each chapter.
  • Thorough coverage of troubleshooting, supported by the use of illustrated case studies throughout the book.
  • An extensive appendix containing a detailed description of each of the 68HC11's available instructions.

A major enhancement to this new edition is the use of additional photos, illustrations, and exercises to help explain concepts. There has also been a significant increase in the number of chapter review questions, problems, and troubleshooting exercises. Answers to selected problems are provided at the end of the book.

Instructors who are' using this book for a course should obtain the accompanying Instructor's Manual (ISBN 0-13060905-6).

5.0 out of 5 stars Good!, July 11, 2001
We used this as a textbook at the Univ. of Mich. Overall this is a good introduction to microcontrollers/processors. Authors kept discussion at the 'logic gates' level with an introduction to the Motorolla HC11 programming. Pace is gentle and just enough detailed for introduction to the subject.

4.0 out of 5 stars For Beginners Only..., April 13, 2007
This review is from: Microprocessors and Microcomputers: Hardware and Software (6th Edition) (Paperback)
Microprocessors and Microcomputers by Ronld Tocci provides an good introduction to the microprocessor world. It does a very good job at explaing what the different components of a microprocessor based system does and how they fit together. This book is not for someone who is resonably knowledgable about the subject (i.e. you have already built and programed a simple microcontroller or microprocessor based system). The more experienced need to find a title targeting their specific processor of choice.
