If you're ready to learn assembly language programming and the SX architecture, this is the book. The book begins with a step-by-step tutorial demonstrating the Parallax SX-Key software and programming tool. This covers the SX-Key debugger, registers/code windows while developing timing-based programs. The following chapters of the book provide detailed explanations of architecture including register use, memory configuration, interrupts and stack management. Short program examples are used to demonstrate arithmetic and logic instructions, Virtual Peripherals and UARTs. Applications examples in the second half of the book include function generators, pulse width modulation, analog to digital conversion, reading keypads, controlling LED displays, serial bus communication, and programming the SX Tech Bot.
