A PC is normally the first choice for scientific, educational, industrial and hobby users who require a computer to control and/or monitor a piece of external equipment. A PC can actually interface to a peripheral device by way of several routes. One of these is via the standard ISA expansion slots, a method better suited to more advanced users. Easier options are provided in the form of the parallel and serial ports. |
In this book, all three methods are covered in some detail, including tried and tested circuits for any necessary hardware. The software side of things is also covered with both MS-DOS and Windows programs. This book contains everything that you are likely to need to know about the practical interfacing of electronic devices to a PC. |
