The scope of the book reflects the changes that have occurred in power technology, allowing the entrance of power electronics into every facet of industrial drives, and expanding the field to open more career opportunities.

    Providing a sound pedagogy - from basic concepts to applications - it prepares users to apply concepts learned to a variety of situations they may encounter in their future jobs. "Covers the hardware aspects of the microcomputer as a system - using a spiral approach in exploring and re-exploring topics from various perspectives; introduces programming step-by-step, beginning with 8085 instructions; examines programming techniques, program development, and software development systems; and integrates hardware and software concepts in interfacing and designing microprocessor-based products. Examines 68HC11 microcontrollers, 486 and Pentium 32-bit processors, and RISC processors, and considers the interfacing of I/Os - supporting discussions with many industrial and practical examples. Now replaces DMA controller 8257 with the 8237; shows how to interface a LCD module; replaces the Intel SDK-85 system with EMAC Primer (a stand-alone single-board microcomputer system with a Hex keyboard and LED displays which can be used with a PC); and provides complete data sheets for 8259, 8237, and a LCD panel. Both hardware and software troubleshooting problems are included.

    The British expected R.101 to spearhead a fleet of imperial airships that would dominate the skies as British naval ships, a century earlier, had ruled the seas. The dream ended when, on its demonstration flight to India, R.101 crashed in France, tragically killing nearly all aboard.Combining meticulous research with superb storytelling, Fatal Flight guides us from the moment the great airship emerged from its giant shed—nearly the largest building in the British Empire—to soar on its first flight, to its last fateful voyage. The full story behind R.101 shows that, although it was a failure, it was nevertheless a supremely imaginative human creation. The technical achievement of creating R.101 reveals the beauty, majesty, and, of course, the sorrow of the human experience.The narrative follows First Officer Noel Atherstone and his crew from the ship’s first test flight in 1929 to its fiery crash on October 5, 1930. It reveals in graphic detail the heroic actions of Atherstone as he battled tremendous obstacles. He fought political pressures to hurry the ship into the air, fended off Britain’s most feted airship pilot, who used his influence to take command of the ship and nearly crashed it, and, a scant two months before departing for India, guided the rebuilding of the ship to correct its faulty design. After this tragic accident, Britain abandoned airships, but R.101 flew again, its scrap melted down and sold to the Zeppelin Company, who used it to create LZ 129, an airship even more mighty than R.101—and better known as the Hindenburg. Set against the backdrop of the British Empire at the height of its power in the early twentieth century,Fatal Flight portrays an extraordinary age in technology, fueled by humankind’s obsession with flight.
