specific interrupts. Register stacking and basic interrupt information
is fair game

Homework # 9 re-assigned.
Now due on Friday after the exam
Details on specific types of interrupts will
not be on the test, but you should
read ALL of chapter 6 (Interrupts and Resets) while this material is
still fresh. Various interrupt details
will be featured in labs and on future exams.

Oct 14 |
Interfacing a Centronics (style) printer to the 68HC11 using the
built in subsystem. Detailed example.
Homework # 11 assigned for Monday.
Also, by Saturday, one member of each project team needs to email me
explaining how ready they are for a "project day". If everybody is ready
to get started (enough parts in hand to keep busy and productive for 3 hours),
we can work on projects in lab next week. Otherwise we'll do a lab on
hardware interrupts.
CC your project partner on the email so that I can respond to both of you
easily.

discuss storing code into the on-chip and On-board EEPROM, and configuring
the Axiom boards to start running code in EEPROM.
You will want to make use of
this program.
