The ever decreasing price/performance ratio of microcontrollers makes it economically attractive to replace more and more conventional mechanical or electronic control systems within many products by embedded real-time computer systems. An embedded real-time computer system is always part of a well-specified larger system, which we call an...
This book provides a foundation in digital design for students in computer engineering, electrical engineering and computer science courses. It deals with digital design as an activity in a larger systems design context. Instead of focusing on gate-level design and aspects of digital design that have diminishing relevance in a real-world...
Products using microprocessors generally fall into two categories. The first category uses high-performance microprocessors such as the Pentium in applications where system performance is critical. We have an entire book dedicated to this topic, The 80x86 IBM PC and Compatible Computers, Volumes / and //, from Prentice Hall, in the second...
This book was written by Michael Margolis with Nick Weldin to help you explore the amazing things you can do with Arduino.
Arduino is a family of microcontrollers (tiny computers) and a software creation environment that makes it easy for you to create programs (called sketches) that can interact with the physical world. Things you...
Discover how C's efficiency makes it a popular choice in a wide variety of applications and operating systems with special applicability to wearables, game programming, system level programming, embedded device/firmware programming and in Arduino and related electronics hobbies in this condensed code and syntax guide. This book...

Updated for the latest Node Long Term Support (LTS) and Node Current (6.0) releases, this hands-on edition helps you master Node’s core fundamentals and...
The full title of the book is An Introduction to USB and USB Programming on Microchip Devices. This book focuses on PIC18 USB devices. It covers the practical and programming aspects of understanding the USB 2 protocol, building applications running on USB capabile Microchip PIC18 microcontrollers as well as Microsoft Windows based...
Microcontroller technology has exploded in popularity among ham radio operators. The new generation of single-board microcontrollers is easier than ever to use, bringing together hardware and software for project-building most radio amateurs can easily dive into. With inexpensive microcontroller platforms-such as the popular open-source...
The C language was development at Bell Labs in the early 1970’s by Dennis
Ritchie and Brian Kernighan. One of the first platforms for implementation was
the PDP-11 running under a UNIX environment.
Since its introduction, it has evolved and been standardized throughout the
computing industry as an established development...
ARM designs the cores of microcontrollers which equip most "embedded systems" based on 32-bit processors. Cortex M3 is one of these designs, recently developed by ARM with microcontroller applications in mind. To conceive a particularly optimized piece of software (as is often the case in the world of embedded systems) it...
ARM-based Microcontroller Projects Using mbed gives readers a good understanding of the basic architecture and programming of ARM-based microcontrollers using ARM’s mbed software. The book presents the technology through a project-based approach with clearly structured sections that enable readers to use or modify them...
