Overview
This book serves to demystify the parallel port. First addressing the basic tools of inputting-to and outputting-from the port, it will logically progress from the simple to more complex. It will walk the reader through the design process until a solid understanding of the parallel port is achieved.

Electrical engineer Barbarello explains the basic tools of inputting and outputting from a parallel port; how to use display devices like LEDs effectively; and how to use input sensing devices like light- sensitive resistors, infrared LEDs and phototransistors, and rotary encoders. His walk through the design process includes building a few useful devices. He does not include bibliographic references. The 3.5<"> disk for DOS, Windows, or Qbasic, contains 52 data and executable support files. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
