II. COURSE DESCRIPTION


This course is theoretical and practical. Its aim is to provide students with criteria so that they are able to
understand internal architecture and microprocessors programming, as well as design and develop
applications based on microprocessors. The course encompasses the following subjects: Basic
architecture of a microprocessor, evolution, addressing modes, instructions, programming, memory
interfaces, interfaces with input and output devices, microprocessor-based systems design and
microcontroller.

III. COURSE OUTCOMES


1. Learn fundamental concepts of microprocessors.
2. Work out a flowchart as a graphical tool to interpret the control program logic.
3. Program the microprocessor through assembly language.
4. Computer-aided analyze and simulate the operation of control programs.
5. Learn concepts related to microprocessors interfaces.
6. Establish differences among several types of Input-Output interfaces.
7. Design and implement microprocessor interface systems with Input-Output memory and devices.
8. Work out, design and implement projects based on microprocessors, assessing the importance of
these devices in the solution of problems of practical application.
9. Learn concepts of microprocessors and establish differences among systems based on
microprocessors and systems based on microcontrollers.

VI. METHODOLOGY
The course is carried out in computing lab, theory and practice sessions. In theory sessions, the instructor
introduces concepts and applications. In practice sessions, several programming problems are solved, and
their solutions are analyzed. In lab sessions, EMU 8086 microprocessors and Proteus and MPLAB
microcontrollers software programs and MASM and TASM programs are used to program and implement
practical applications. At the end of the course students must hand in and expose an integrating paper or
project. In all sessions students active participation is encouraged.

VII. EVALUATION FORMULA


The average grade PF is calculated as follows:

PF = (EP + EF + (P1+P2+P3+P4) / 4 + (L1+L2+L3+L4) / 4) / 4

EP: Mid-Term Exam EF: Final Exam P#: Quizzes L#: Labs
