The 8088 and 8086 Microprocessors - Programming, Interfacing, Software, Hardware and Applications 4th Edition  (English, Paperback, Walter A. Triebel)

Published in the year 2007, The 8088 And 8086 Microprocessors is a book that provides the readers with a comprehensive study of the hardware, and software aspects of the 8086, and 8088 microprocessors.

Summary Of The Book

The 8088 And 8086 Microprocessors: Programming, Interfacing, Software, Hardware And Applications is a book that targets future designers of microprocessor-based electronic equipment, providing them with a systems-level insight into the 8086, and 8088 microprocessors. This book provides the readers with insight into assembling, running, and debugging programs. It also explains how to develop, troubleshoot, and test interface circuits.

There are 15 chapters present in this book, and some of them include Assembly Language Programming, Assembly Language Program Development With MASM, Memory Devices, Circuits And Subsystem Design, Connecting Assembly Language To C, Software Architecture Of The 8088 And 8086 Microprocessors, Interrupt Interface Of The 8088 And 8086 Microprocessors, and Introduction To Microprocessors And Microcomputers.

Some other chapters include Real-Mode Software And Hardware Architecture Of The 80286 Microprocessor, 8088/8086 Programming-Control Flow Instructions And Program Structures, Machine Language Coding And The Debug Software Development Program Of The PC, The 80386, 80486 And Pentium Processor Families: Hardware Architecture, and 8088/8086 Programming-Integer Instructions And Computations.

This book has been divided into three parts. The first part deals with the software architecture, and guides the readers into writing, executing, and debugging assembly language programs. In the second part, the readers are provided insight into the hardware architecture of microcomputers that were developed using the 8086, and 8088 microprocessors. The third part provides detailed insight into other microprocessors that belong to the 80x86 families. The author also covers the latest Pentium family, which includes Pentium III, and Pentium IV.
