Analog Interfacing to Embedded Microprocessor Systems

Senior Electrical Engineer who has worked for the past twenty years in the field of embedded control systems. He previously worked on Global Positioning Systems and secure communications equipment at Rockwell International, on document processing equipment at Banctec, and on medical electronics at Organon-Teknika. He has written several books and many articles for periodicals such as Circuit Cellar INK, and Modern Electronics.

"Provides hard-to-find information on interfacing analog devices and technologies to the purely digital world of embedded microprocessors. Gives the reader the insight and perspective of a real embedded systems design engineer, including tips that only a hands-on professional would know. Covers important considerations for both hardware and software systmes when linking analog and digital devices. -Embedded Technology ...a comprehensive source on interfacing the real world to microprocessors should prove invaluable to embedded systems engineers, students, technicians, and hobbyists. Anyone involved in connecting the analog environment to their digital machines, or troubleshooting such connections will find this book especially useful. - Embedded Technology In general, for all the sections, there are plenty of simple diagrams and also the maths is kept to a simple level. ...I like this book and recommend it as an introduction to the subject for home use, students and SW Engineers....there are plenty of simple diagrams and also the maths is kept to a simple level.
