This is an applications guide to interfacing microcomputers. It offers practical non-mathematical solutions to interfacing problems in many applications including data acquisition and control. Emphasis is given to the definition of the objectives of the interface, then comparing possible solutions and producing the best interface for every situation. Worked examples illustrate each chapter in this wide-ranging design manual for practitioners and students. Chapters on interfacing techniques, add-ons, ports, A/D and D/A converters, data conversion and waveform generation have been updated in this new edition (the last was entitled Digital and Analogue Interfacing for Microcomputers ). New chapters on counters and timers, switching devices, optical devices, temperature measurement and control and motor control have been added to illustrate further the range of applications. The operation and interfacing of a wide range of devices from all the major suppliers are included. Dr Mustafa A. Mustafa is a senior designer of control equipment and has written many technical articles and papers on the subject of computers and their application to control engineering. This book should appeal to electronics engineers and final year degree students.
