I strongly recommend that you get a copy of Robert Joudain's book
_Programmer's_Problem_Solver_for_the_IBM_PC,_XT_&_AT_
(ISBN 0-89303-787-7 or a newer revision) from Brady/Prentice Hall. This book
covers 8237 DMA, 8250 UART, 8253/8254 PIT, 8255 parallel, 8259 PIC, 6845 CRTC,
and u765 FDC chips as they are implemented in PCs and clones. It provides
sample
code in assembler and (yecch) BASIC of examples of program use of the
hardware.


With the foundation provided by Jourdain it is much simpler to follow both the
chip data sheets, or other technical documentation, and code that uses it.
