%X The mass storage and input/output needs of microcomputer systems are
driving the development of a broad range of peripheral products.
Fortunately, no one technology is lagging - the capabilities of all products
are advancing at compatible rates.

%X The reports of the death of paper have been greatly exaggerated. Not only
will computer not halt the flow of paper, they will probably increase it.

%K modelling electric lego
%X This device consists of intelligent building blocks which may be assembled
by hand and then automatically queried by a computer. In this way, a structural
database can be quickly and easily created

%K cmos switched capacitor analog/digital converter ADC
transducer integrated circuit
%X By incorporating on-chip signal preprocessing, this CMOS switched-
capacitor-based A/D converter improves the speed and accuracy with which
a microprocessor can sense physical forces such as pressure and
acceleration.

%X Starting with the first five-volt microprocessors in 1975,
Motorola has gone on to produce an entire family of midrange microcomputers
and peripherals designed for high speed operation and maximum efficiency
