Embedded Microcontrollers and Processor Design » (New Edition)

Unique in its broad perspective, this book provides complete coverage of the fundamentals of embedded microcontrollers. Its focus is wider reaching than most, placing an emphasis on the general concepts behind the microcontroller, not on teaching software programming for a specific device. There is coverage of key concepts, including DSP, Fuzzy Logic, and Analog to Digital Conversion so students get a better understanding of real world design. With an emphasis on microcontroller processor architecture and technology it is appropriate for a variety of real world situations. A broader introduction to microcontroller processor architecture and technology. Discussion of how to balance three technologies: the processor, memory and software.
