themidpoint of the DAC’s full range. If this decrease is greater than one least significant bit (LSB),the binary weighted DAC becomes nonmonotonic3.The segmented current steering DAC uses several conversion partitions or segments to overcomethe source of nonmonotonicity described above for binary weighted DACs. The ideal N-bitsegmented current steering DAC is made of 2N elements for thermometer coding. Binary-to-thermometer code conversions are shown in Table I. For example, the binary 011 (decimal 3) isconverted to three 1’s and one 0. This code can be viewed as a thermometer that is filled up tothe topmost ONE in the column and hence the name thermometer code1.However, it is impractical to implement high resolution DACs using 2N elements because
, the Noral Micrologics Flex BDM Debugger for the 68HC12 family ofmicrocontrollers will be covered. It takes advantage of the 68HC12’s Background DebugModule (BDM) to provide real-time source level debugging. The system consists of a source-level debugging application and a BDM pod connected between a PC parallel port and the targethardware. It is more expensive than using Motorola’s 68HC12 EVB as a background debug podbut less expensive than a full emulator – if one existed. In the student lab, this system providesmuch better control and insight for the student debugging large C programs. Figure 3 shows anexample of the Noral 68HC12 BDM debugger’s working environment. A few of the features ofthis debugger are shown in the figure including the

previous classes that took the course in thestandard offering delivery format.Background The College of Engineering at North Carolina State University implemented a program inthe late 1970’s to deliver graduate level credit courses to non-resident students to pursue Mastersdegrees in Engineering. Courses were initially delivered live by faculty who traveled to a selectnumber of state sites where the students met for classes. Regular university credit was providedfor these offerings to fulfill graduate degree requirements. As the demand for universityaccredited off-campus educational course offerings rapidly grew across the state this method ofdelivery became cumbersome and unworkable. A more convenient delivery method was needed that
) minorities has increasedsteadily from 2.9% in 1972-73 to 9.2% in 1994-951. Even with the increase, Reichert & Absherreport that the degrees awarded are stills less than half of the combined representation of theseminorities in the U. S. population.Almost thirty years ago a national effort was launched to increase the number of minorities in thefield of engineering1. The effort has met with some success and participation by minorities inscience and engineering is at an all time high. Many major corporations now support the thesisthat diversity makes good business sense. Hispanic, and Native Americans, however, still remainsignificantly underrepresented in science and engineering with roughly half of the science andengineering degrees awarded to

INSE - A Historical PerspectiveThis section discusses the evolution of the Industrial and Systems Engineering (INSE) Programat The University of Memphis from a graduate program to a combined undergraduate/graduateprogram. INSE began as a graduate program. In the early 1970’s, a group of industryrepresentatives approached the university expressing the need for a program to teach systemsengineering skills to people in industry who possessed technical knowledge in other areas.These local industries provided the first students as well as the adjunct faculty to teach thecourses. Thus, the connection to the "real world" was established at INSE’s
