[comp.sys.ibm.pc] ibm pc bus

ae1@k.cc.purdue.edu (Tim Volpert) (09/25/88)

I have been searching for information on popular methods
of interfacing with the IBM PC/XT bus. None of the publications
I have seen really give much information on the bus or 
ways to connect to it. Can anyone suggest a good article
or book for this??
Thanks in advance :)

I think you'll like Sargent & Shoemaker's "The IBM PC from the Inside
Out".  An Addison-Wesley book.

Byte Also put out a special issue last year entitled:
	"Inside the IBM PC's"
inside were articles on how to interface, including I/O address
spaces bus timing etc.
I think that it was something like Volume 12, Number 12 or 13

	An excellent book on interfacing to the IBM is:

	Interfacing Sensors to the IBM PC by Willis Tompkins.

	Not cheap - about $50 hardbound, but excellent. The
	book builds a data acquistion system block by block,
	and discusses interfacing various types of sensors
	to this data acquisition system. Well done.

    there have been replies mentioning books; for magazine articles,
check micro cornucopia.  i think the last issue had an article on
building a generic prototype card, showing how to do address decode,
etc.  this magazine caters to hardware/software hackers in the grand
old style that is becoming very rare these days.  i recommend it.
