From the Back Cover:
\* U8586-2, Mackenzie, 68000 Microprocessor *\ Key Benefit: This comprehensive introduction/reference to common microprocessor interfacing techniques used in industry today focuses on both the hardware and software aspects of the popular Motorola 16-bit microprocessor -- the 68000 -- and its more enhanced versions -- the 68020, 68030, and the 68040. It describes a 13-chip 68000 single-board computer (the 68KMB) that can be prototyped by readers, and features a companion disk with several useful tools and utilities. Key Topics: Covers microcomputer concepts, the 68000 microprocessor, instruction set, assembly language programming, programming examples, exception processing, input/output, the 68KMB, interface examples, and beyond the 68000. The companion disk contains a 68000 cross assembler with linker/locator, conversion utility, terminal emulator for the host PC, a hex dump of MON68K, and source code for examples in book. Appendices include data sheets for continued reference, and a complete listing of the 68000 monitor program (MON68K). Market: For those interested in common microprocessor interfacing techniques and the Motorola 16-bit microprocessor (the 68000) in particular.
