The Microprocessor - (Wiley-Arm Professional Computing and Electrical Engineering) by Darshak S Vasavada & S K Sinha (Hardcover)

About the Book

"The Microprocessor offers a supremely accessible and user-friendly introduction to microprocessor basics: instruction set, the exception model, system architecture and microcontroller programming. Explaining the working principles with simplified models, this first-level book builds the base for all onward courses at intermediate and advanced levels. Filled with exercises that can be executed on the free version of Keil Vision MDK without any hardware, the book explains the essential aspects of microprocessor architecture with simple programming examples in assembly and C. By blending conceptual knowledge with practical exercises, the book offers valuable insights that equip readers to engage with real-world applications in the fields of microprocessor architecture and embedded systems."--
