Embedded Microprocessor Systems: Real World Design, Third Edition

By Stuart R. Ball

Book Overview

The less-experienced engineer will be able to apply Ball's advice to everyday projects and challenges immediately with amazing results. In this new edition, the author has expanded the section on debug to include avoiding common hardware, software and interrupt problems. Other new features include an expanded section on system integration and debug to address the capabilities of more recent emulators and debuggers, a section about combination microcontroller/PLD devices, and expanded information on industry standard embedded platforms.

longstanding ideas

Ball presents a relatively nontechnical introduction to using microprocessors in an embedded system. Possibly, the text is aimed at an electrical engineering undergraduate who is having her first course on this subject. The book describes hardware and software issues. Both must be learnt, because your system will consist of a microprocessor and various other chips for memory, clock, I/O ... So, for example, an input pin on...

presents good surroundings about real-embedded system

This book has wide contents about embedded system but brief. Readers will take many basic concepts of real system and embedded design. This book is appropriate to the beginner of embedded design.

Real concepts of real system design

The book help a lot for embedde system design. It covers some complex problems that a system designer can face during development. If anyone having some interest in such area SHOULD read this book at least once.With Best Wishespankaj
