Description
Crash Course in PC and Microcontroller Technology teaches the basics of microprocessor architecture and applications in an easy-to-understand format. Each chapter includes learning objectives, clear explanations and examples, and an end-of-chapter self-quiz. The drill-and-review software included with the book allows learners to test themselves on the contents of each chapter, providing a second reinforcement of the material.
With the two other Crash Course books, Electronics Technology and Digital Technology, this book forms a complete course in electronics and microcomputer technology appropriate for technical schools, industrial training, and hobbyists.
