Pucknell & Eshraghian : Basic VLSI Design, 3rd ed.

Author   : Sunil Mathur
Edition   : Second Edition
Price        : 425.00   
This comprehensive and thoroughly updated text now in its second edition continues to provide the complete knowledge about the Intel’s 8085 microprocessors, its programming and concept of interfacing of memory, input/output devices and programmable peripheral chips.

Organized in four parts, Part I (Chapters 1–9) covers a review of the analog and digital signals as well as hardware and software related aspects of microprocessor 8085. Part II (Chapters 10 and 11) discusses memory and input-output concepts, analog to digital and digital to analog converters and various memory and IO address decoding techniques. Part III (Chapters 12–17) explains the programmable interfacing chips with extensive interfacing examples. Part IV (Chapters 18 and 19) presents a brief discussion on other 8-bit microprocessors along with 16 and 32-bit Intel Processors. Each topic has been supported with numerous examples that will help students apply the concepts to other microprocessors in the course at advanced level.

This book is designed specifically for the undergraduate students of electronics and communication engineering, computer science and engineering, and information technology.

New to this Edition
Chapters  on “Architecture and Organization of Microprocessor” and “Instruction Set of 8085 Microprocessor” have been revised and modified substantially.
Multiple choice questions have been added to all the chapters.

This book gives a comprehensive coverage of different aspects of   microcontroller-based system design and development in a generalized manner. Basic ideas and fundamental concepts  common to all micro-controllers have been introduced before giving specific examples using the 8051 microcontroller, which is the most popular microcontroller in use today. Coverage of the three important issues such as hardware, software and hardware-software integration has been provided in a balanced manner. For easy understanding of the subject, a bottom-up approach has been followed.

The book is designed for the undergraduate students of electrical engineering, computer science and engineering, and electronics and communication engineering.
