  This book describes Motorola's 16- and 32-bit microprocessors from both the software and hardware standpoints. As a practical engineering book, it looks at many of the real problems encountered in computer and computer systems design. It includes a 68000 programming model; interface to memories and external systems; the design of memory systems including error detection and memory management; the design of computer buses; and information on the new 68030, 68020 and 68040 systems.

  This text covers the design of systems that use a microprocessor including both hardware and software considerations. The particular type of microprocessor discussed is Motorola's 68000 family, including the most recent generation of 68000 chips. Clements' emphasis is practical, providing the necessary detail to enable students to design actual, working systems. A chapter on the C programming language and its relationship to assembly language should appeal especially to instructors whose courses emphasize software aspects of systems design. A bound-in disk contains simulation software that enables students to run 68000 assembly-language code on IBM-PCs and compatibles.
