Computers: Self-contained microcomputers ease system implementation: The user gets a microprocessor, memory, built-in software, a power supply, and input-output circuits so he can program his own hardware

摘要

The engineer who designs microprocessor-based equipment sooner or later must bring software and hardware together into a working system. For many, a self-contained microcomputer, like those listed on the next two pages, may be the most effective means to achieve design goals. These development systems provide the user with a microprocessor, memory, built-in software, a power supply, and input-output circuits so he can program hardware that looks very much like the final product he intends to build.
