This introductory level text provides the basics of computer processors for courses in introduction to microprocessors or microprocessor applications. Its orientation is not so much towards a description how microprocessors themselves are designed, but rather how microprocessors can be used to do something useful. Thus, it is aimed not at the electrical major who needs a strong understanding of the internal workings of microprocesor chips, but at the electrical or non-electrical electrical major who needs adequate background to intelligently use, program, modify, and maintain microprocessor systems or to manage those people who do so. The coverage focuses on two popular microprocessor chips, the MC6809 and the MC68000.
