    • Course Description (from syllabus)/Rational:

      Microprocessors and assembly language have been the most used methods of incorporating intelligence into automated devices. It is therefore necessary to develop a good understanding of their operation and how they can be used as building blocks for automated systems and control applications. This course explores the inner workings of a microprocessor from the programmer’s perspective and several laboratory exercises will be based on microprocessor utilizing the assembly language.

      Course Objective

      The goal is to enrich the students’ regarding the following.

      ▪ To learn about the internal architecture and addressing modes of Intel 8086 Microprocessor and analyze the comparison between several microprocessor of the same thread.
      ▪ To apply the arithmetic and logical operations using assembly language based instructions for Intel 8086 microprocessor.
      ▪ To apply branching and looping structures for solving computational problems using assembly instructions in simulation based software.
      ▪ To learn and analyze the theoretical and practical implications of memory access in microprocessor. 

      Course Learning Outcome: 

      CLO1

      Demonstrate the internal architecture and its general operations of microprocessors and describe the difference between the 8086 and advanced microprocessors.

      CLO2

      Classify and articulate the addressing modes and memory access methods within the microprocessor.
