MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEMS UNIT:
MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEMS TOPICS COVERED
- Computer principles
- Memories
- Microprocessor
- Tools used in assembly language programming
- Interrupts
- Interfaces
- Input/output techniques
- Subroutines
- Fault diagnosis
- Revision questions
Computer principles
This topic trainees will learn; The microprocessor system which consists of data input, storage, processing and output devices, under the control of a CPU. The CPU communicates with the main system chips via a shared set of address and data bus lines. The microcontroller provides most of the features of a conventional microprocessor system on one chip
Memories
This topic trainees will learn; terminologies, main memory, ROM, random access memory, memory organization, secondary memory, memory maps and memory timing
Microprocessor
This topic trainees will learn; PIN diagram, microprocessor functional block diagram and instruction sets and assembly language programming.
Tools used in assembly language programming
This topic trainees will learn;
the following assembly language development tools:
- Assembler.
- Archiver.
- Linker.
- Library information archiver.
- Absolute lister.
- Cross-reference lister.
- Object file display utility
Interfaces
This topic trainees will learn; Interface which is the path for communication between two components. Interfacing is of two. types, memory interfacing and I/O interfacing. Memory Interfacing. When we are executing any instruction, we need the microprocessor to access the memory for reading instruction codes and the data stored in the memory
Subroutines
This topic trainees will learn; The subroutine in the microprocessor which is a sequence of program instructions code that performs a particular task. This is packaged as a unit and used in a particular task when needed. A subroutine is a unit which is used in multiple times in different location
Fault diagnosis
This topic trainees will learn; troubleshooting tree, typical faults in microcomputer based systems and fault finding techniques.
