During these many couple of years of research in Department of Electronics, Saurashtra University, Rajkot, great men supported me to complete my research. Dr. H. N. Pandya, as a head, guide and as human being understood my nature of curiosity to work and allowed me to work under him. He also helped me to get Rajiv Gandhi Research fellowship from UGC. I had a good support from his family Mrs. Kiran and Ms. Sweta. It is due to only his support I could enjoy my research period and he made my term a golden period of my life. In simple words he fulfilled my dream in all respect and words of thanks are small. Starting my research period with Dr. A.A. Bhaskar I had a good start to my work and stay at department and Girnar Hostel. Dr. Bimal Vyas, Dr. Maulin Nanavati, Dr Darshan Vyas and Dr. Kapil Bhatt provided all their guidance and experience that was very valuable during the research period. My sincere thanks to Mr. Hiteshbhai, Mr. Manishbhai, Mr. Dhirubhai, Mr. Pravinbhai, Mr. Vamanbhai, Mr. Tareshbhai, Mr. Jayubhai, Mr. Sandeep, Dr. Pranav, Dr. Anchal, Dr. Khut, Dr. Nikesh sir, Dr. Mahesh sir, Dr. Thumar sir for helping me at the department and university. I also extend my thanks to Mr. Mahesh, Ms. Seema, Mr. Kamal in the laboratory work. My father Mr. Govindrao and mother Miss. Manjulaben supported me to stay and work in Rajkot. I am very much thankful to my wife Miss. Bhumika, my son Mr. Aavartan and my sisters Mrs. Jayshree and Ms. Poonam as they controlled their temper when I was busy working with my laptop and kits and unable to attend them. Contents 1.

The mainframe era was characterized by computers that required large buildings and teams of technicians and operators to keep them going. Perhaps both academics and students had little direct contact with the mainframe. During the mainframe era, academics concentrated on languages and compliers, algorithms and operating systems. The minicomputer era put computers in the hands of students and academics, because university departments could now buy their own minis. As minicomputers were not as complex as mainframes and because students could get direct hands-on experience, many departments of computer science and electronics engineering taught students how to program in the native language of the computer – assembly language. In mid 1970s, assembly language programming was used to teach both the control of I/O devices and the writing of small programs. The explosion of computer software had not taken place, and if you wanted software you had to write it yourself. The microprocessor was introduced in the late 1970s. For the first time, each student was able to access a real computer. Unfortunately, microprocessors appeared before the introduction of low-cost memory (both primary and secondary). Students had to program microprocessors in assembly language because the only storage mechanism was often a ROM with just enough capacity to hold a simple single-pass assembler. The advent of the low-cost microprocessor system (single board) ensured that virtually every student took a course on assembly language. Even today, most courses in computer science include a module on computer architecture and organization and teaching students to write programs in assembly language forces them to understand the computer architecture. The 1990s is the post-microprocessor era. Today‘s personal computers have more power and storage capacity than many of yesterday‘s mainframes and they have a range of powerful software tools that were undreamed of in the 1970s. The availability of high- 3 performance hardware and the drive to include more and more new material in the curriculum has put pressure on academics to justify what they teach. In particular, many are questioning the need for courses on assembly language. The post-microprocessor era can also be called microcontroller era. This leads to the design and development of educational trainer systems. Since the introduction of Intel 8085A microprocessor, there has been explosion of educational trainer systems, evaluation boards and single board computers (SBC). Many vendors started designing microcontrollers on various architectures. The vendors initially concentrated on 8 – bit chips and later on gradually 32 – bit chips. The vendors also started giving technical support with evaluation boards and software for faster development and utilization of their microcontrollers in the market. The customers needed to develop product in time before any other could do. So, it was mandatory to use such trainer systems or evaluation boards with software support by the design engineers. The educational institutions started inculcating microprocessor and microcontroller in their curriculum because the industry started absorbing basically trained personnel in them. These institutions also demanded trainer systems that are easy to work with and they could complete the syllabus in one or two semesters with practical hands-on training on them. The purchase of trainer systems is costly affair for some institutions and some enthusiast students who desired to excel in microcontroller programming in the student life.

    Overview of Xilinx JTAG Programming Cables and Reference Schematics for Legacy

    R Overview of Xilinx JTAG Programming Cables and Reference Schematics for Legacy XTP029 (v1.0) March 28, 2008 Parallel Cable III (PC3) Summary This technical publication provides an overview of Xilinx JTAG Cables and a reference schematic for the legacy Xilinx Parallel Cable III product (PC3) for educational use. Description Xilinx offers the Hi-Speed Platform Cable USB (PCUSB) and the Parallel Cable IV (PC4) cables. The PC4 cable supports both the IEEE 1284 parallel port interface and IEEE STD 1149.1 (JTAG) standards for in-system programming or embedded debug. These cables are more thoroughly described in the “Overview of Xilinx JTAG Solutions.” For reference purposes, the PC3 product schematic is also provided in this document. Note: The PC3 cable product has been discontinued and replaced by PCUSB and PC4. Both the PCUSB and PC4 cables have expanded capabilities, superior download performance, and robust immunity to system interface sensitivities when compared to the legacy PC3 cable. The PC3 product was first introduced in 1998 and then discontinued in 2002. Software support for PC3 was removed starting in March 2008 with the 10.1 release of Xilinx iMPACT software. Versions of iMPACT software after 10.1 release do not support the PC3 cable. See “Notice of Disclaimer” regarding warranty and support of the PC3 schematic information. Overview of Xilinx recommends the Platform Cable USB (PCUSB) or Parallel Cable IV (PC4) for new Xilinx JTAG designs. The PCUSB and PC4 offer reliable operation, higher speed download, voltage support down to 1.5V, keyed ribbon cable connector for error-free insertion, and improved ground/signal Solutions integrity.

The PC 97 requirements for printers and parallel ports seek to ensure the following: • Ensure maximum speed for transfer of parallel data between the system and the peripheral. • Ensure a true Plug and Play experience for users. Basic Printer Features This section summarizes the basic hardware requirements for printers for PC 97. Basic Features for IEEE 1394 Printers This section defines requirements for printers that use IEEE 1394. 1. Compliance with PC 97 requirements for IEEE 1394 Required This bus is recommended in PC 97 for support of fast, high-density data transfer. For information about implementing IEEE 1394 for PC 97, see the “IEEE 1394” chapter in Part 3 of this guide.
