An earlier reference, Microcontrollers in Systems Design began the task. It was very project oriented with an inclusive reference for the 8051. However, it had one shortcoming. It required the reader to have a good grasp of computer systems and (s)he had to translate the reference material into the projects.
This work, Systems Design and the 8051, takes a different tack. It is based on engineering design principles that are elucidated as required. Extreme programming (XP) approach to compatibility allows each new project to be integrated as a separate, but interactive module.
The book begins with the fundamentals and sequentially adds new projects. This is accomplished by integrating a straightforward and concise application explanation for all software commands. That is followed by a circuit representation of the new components. The project requirements are laid out. Finally, an exemplar program shows a similar system that the designer can modify to complete the project.
