Книга: Introduction to Microprocessors and Microcontrollers
The microprocessor was born
The microprocessor was born
In 1971 two companies, both in the USA, introduced the world to its future by producing microprocessors. They were a young company called Intel and their rival, Texas Instruments. The microprocessor and its offspring, the microcontroller, were destined to infiltrate every country, every means of production, and almost every home in the world. There is now hardly a person on the planet that does not own or know of something that is dependent on one of these devices. Yet curiously, so few people can give any sort of answer to the simple question ‘What is a microprocessor?’ This, and ‘How does it work?’ form two of the starting points for this book.
