  • Abstract
    A set of laboratory experiments interfacing floppy disk drives with 8 bit and 16 bit microprocessors is presented. The experiments have been carried out with the aim of improving the student´s understanding of the internal working of drives and local input-output communication methods. Enough detail is provided to duplicate parts of the experiments
