This edition correlates closely with popular chip trainers and includes added coverage of the Intel 8088 16-bit microprocessors. Instructors can focus on just one of these popular microprocessors, or include the features of others. The text then relates these fundamentals to three real-world examples: Intel's 8085, Motorola's 6800, and the 6502 chip used by Apple Computers. Striking an ideally balanced approach, this text introduces students to microprocessor fundamentals by using a pedagogical SAP (Simple-As-Possible) model computer. The text then relates these fundamentals to three real-world examples: Intel's 8085, M.
