Introduction to Microcontrollers, Second Edition: Architecture, Programming, and Interfacing for the Freescale 68HC12
- Hardcover: 488 pages
- Publisher: Academic Press; 2 edition (September 10, 2004)
- Language: English
- ISBN-10: 0124518389
Taking the new 16-bit chip as an example likely to become very popular in industry, Lipovski (electrical and computer engineering, U. of Texas-Austin) explains to engineers and engineering students how a computer executes instructions, how a high-level language statement converts to assembler language, what can be done on a small computer, and how the microcomputer is interfaced to the outside world. He begins at a very elementary level that readers who have only used computer could follow. The tutorial structure would be suitable for classroom use as well.

Unique Chips and Systems
- Hardcover: 392 pages
- Publisher: CRC (November 15, 2007)
- Language: English
- ISBN-10: 1420051741
Which came first, the system or the chip? While integrated circuits enable technology for the modern information age, computing, communication, and network chips fuel it. As soon as the integration ability of modern semiconductor technology offers presents opportunities, issues in power consumption, reliability, and form-factor present challenges. The demands of emerging software applications can only be met with unique systems and chips. Drawing on contributors from academia, research, and industry, Unique Systems and Chips explores unique approaches to designing future computing and communication chips and systems. The book focuses on specialized hardware and systems as opposed to general-purpose chips and systems. It covers early conception and simulation, mid-development, application, testing, and performance. The chapter authors introduce new ideas and innovations in unique aspects of chips and system design, then go on to provide in-depth analysis of these ideas.
