Course Title: Microprocessor Based Systems

Course Code: CEN321


Pre-requisite: Computer Architecture & Organization
Credit Hours: 3+1

Aims & Objectives


This course introduces to Engineering Graduates the Microprocessor and its Assembly Language
programming. The course is designed based on the popular Intel 8086 microprocessor and provides
good understanding of the microprocessor operation at the address, data, and control level. The
course also covers the software part through teaching of assembly language programming
techniques. Microprocessor Interface hardware and support chips are also examined in detail.

Marks Distribution:
Assignments + Class Quizzes + Project(s) + Presentation(s) 25%
Midterm Examination 25%
Final Examination 50%

Assignments:

Assignments would be assigned at least one week before the due date and must be
submitted on or before due date. No late assignment will be accepted. Total of 3
assignments would be assigned during the semester. You have to be very careful
while you are solving your assignment. Please do not try copy from someone else in
order to avoid any problem at the end of the semester.

Class Quizzes:

To check the class performance, sudden death test or class quizzes would be taken in
class throughout the semester. At least 4 quizzes would be taken during the semester.
These quizzes have to be solved in the class and they would be of short duration.
There would be no LATE submission or MAKEUP for these quizzes.
