dsp and the microcontroller

[cpo]

Some years back (1990s?), Motorola, as it then was, produced a fine manual that they distributed with the MC68HC16 development kit. It was called 'Digital Signal Processing and The Microcontroller'. Does anyone have a copy that they no longer need, or can point me to where I might obtain one.  The authors were Mark McQuilken and James P. LeBlanc.    Many thanks

Did you try google? I get lots of hits.
Looks like it will cost you about 100.00 from amazon used...

Well this one was published by Motorola University, so maybe you (or your source) got the authors name wrong.
Pretty unlikely (though possible, I suppose) Motorola would publish two books with the exact same title.
Perhaps this book is based on a papaer they wrote, but you would think they would get autohor credit.
Further, there is no reference to ANY books by Mark McQuilken and James P. LeBlanc, except on a very old new group from 1995. I am will to bet he got it wrong, and this is the book that was in the kit.

Also, this book got excellent reviews, now I want a copy.

If you are sure that those are the authors you could always contact one of them.  I believe this is the James P. LeBlanc that you are referring to:

Thanks for that link. He is definitely one of the Authors, as is the other person I sited.... I have a copy of the book in front of me, but require a second copy. I will sent out a quiet enquiry to him.

Thanks for your response... Amazon search shows the right title, but a different author. This book has no ISBN number. As far as I'm aware it was never for sale but put out by Motorola as a primer for would-be DSP engineers.
