CS330 MICROCOMPUTER ARCHITECTURE (4 Cr.)
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Prerequisite: An introductory laboratory course in a natural science or a computer programming
course.
Offered: Fall,
Winter
General Introduction and Goals
Study of how computer hardware responds to stored instructions.
Construction projects with logic circuits lead to the development of interfacing
connections and the conceptual designs of microprocessors. Assembly
language programming of the microprocessor functions is introduced in the
context of the logic circuitry being controlled. Programming projects
emphasize the software needed in common interfacing tasks.
