EET 206 – Computer Systems and Applications

Course Description:

Emphasizes study of the microcomputer with programming applications involving external devices with which the processor must communicate. Topics include: I/O and interfacing techniques, basic I/O and interfacers, interrupt devices, problem definition, programmable processors, diagnostics, and control decision. Laboratory work parallels class work.
