The mechanics of how computers communicate with peripheral hardware via buses and interfaces. Educational and Professional Significance
Thomas C. Bartee was a prominent figure in the early days of computing education. During the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, computer science was separating from pure mathematics and electrical engineering. There was a dire need for a text that explained how binary logic translated into tangible hardware.
Download the PDF (legally), open a simulator, and build your first AND-OR circuit. The digital world will suddenly make sense—from the transistor all the way up to the operating system. That is the gift of Thomas C. Bartee.
The official printed copies of Bartee (especially the 5th and 6th editions) are long out of print. Consequently, scanned PDFs are widely shared among:
Here, theory meets application. Readers learn to design circuits that produce outputs based solely on current inputs. Examples include:
