CSC 312 Microprocessor Programming

This course presents the fundamentals of microprocessor architecture and interfacing. Topics include instruction set architecture, assembly language, debugging and IO device interfacing techniques. The PIC processor architecture will be studied, utilizing windows based integrated development environment and tools suite. A PIC hardware evaluation board is used as the basis for interfacing experiments. Software will be written in assembly language. The Pentium processor architecture and the PCI bus will be studied. A hardware/software project will be assigned toward the end of the course. The course is 50% lab and 50% lecture.
