In the informative book, ADuC841 Microcontroller Design Manual: From Microcontroller Theory to Design Projects, Shlomo Engelberg presents a comprehensive guide to designing and programming with the Analog Devices, Inc. ADuC841 microcontroller and other microcontrollers in the 8051 family. Click here to purchase the book.
ADuC841 Microcontroller Design Manual begins with an introduction to microcontrollers from the 8051 family, proceeds to a set of introductory labs that detail how to use the most standard features of such microcontrollers, and includes a set of more advanced labs, many of which make use of features available only on the ADuC841 microcontroller. The more advanced labs include several projects that introduce you to analog-to-digital converters, digital-to-analog converters, and their uses. Other projects demonstrate some of the many ways you can use a microcontroller to solve practical problems. The Keil μVision4 integrated development environment (IDE) is introduced early on, and it is used throughout the book.
This book is perfect for a university classroom setting or for self study. After completing the labs, you will have experienced the joys of microcontroller programming, you will know how to use microcontrollers from the 8051 family, and you will have gained experience using an industry-standard development environment and the tools it provides.

If you have the right tools, designing a microprocessor shouldn’t be complicated. The Verilog hardware description language (HDL) is one such tool. It can enable you to depict, simulate, and synthesize an electronic design, and thus increase your productivity by reducing the overall workload associated with a given project.
Monte Dalrymple’s Microprocessor Design Using Verilog HDL is a practical guide to processor design in the real world.
It presents the Verilog HDL in an easily digestible fashion and serves as a thorough introduction about reducing a computer architecture and instruction set to practice. You’re led through the microprocessor design process from start to finish, and essential topics ranging from writing in Verilog to debugging and testing are laid bare. The book details the following, and more:
- Verilog HDL Review: data types, bit widths/labeling, operations, statements, and design hierarchy
- Verilog Coding Style: files vs. modules, indentation, and design organization
- Design Work: instruction set architecture, external bus interface, and machine cycle
- Microarchitecture: design spreadsheet and essential worksheets (e.g., Operation, Instruction Code, and Next State)
- Writing in Verilog: choosing encoding, assigning states in a state machine, and files (e.g., defines.v, hierarchy.v, machine.v)
- Debugging, Verification, and Testing: debugging requirements, verification requirements, testing requirements, and the test bench
- Post Simulation: enhancements and reduction to practice
