are possible, we think that one experiment should illustrate the basic<br />

principles. If you are interested in other decoder circuits, there are<br />

many different ones described in 8085A Cookbook, and Programming<br />

& Interfacing the 6502, With Experiments (Howard W. Sams<br />

Co., Inc., Indianapolis, IN 46268) . Actually, memory and I/ 0 deaddressing<br />

is pretty much the same, from one computer to the<br />

,'' 11'·"'" In most interface circuits, the decoder circuit that is used on<br />

interface breadboard will work quite well.<br />

While this book tackles Apple <strong>interfacing</strong> at a fairly low level,<br />

there are other important <strong>interfacing</strong> topics that you might wish to<br />

Many of these are covered in TRS-80® Interfacing, Book 2<br />

W. Sams & Co., Inc., Indianapolis, IN 46268) . The infor­<br />

-,,,.ffm presented is fairly general, and it is easily applied to Apple<br />

compunr systems. Topics covered include: high-current, high-voltdriving,<br />

digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital converters,<br />

data processing (smoothing, filtering, averaging, etc.),<br />

communications, and remote control.<br />
