Book Description

In this book, Michael J Pont introduces 70 powerful, proven design techniques ("patterns") for enhancing rapid development and reliability in embedded systems based on the popular 8051 microcontroller family.

With a focus on reliability, it discusses techniques for the design and implementation of software for embedded applications based on the popular Intel 8051 microcontroller family. You will find more than seventy software patterns, complete with guidelines to help you apply these techniques in your own projects.

The author offers practical materials and advice advice for rapidly creating a wide range of different embedded applications. Using a substantial number of detailed examples, ranging from simple to complex systems, this book covers:

• the design & implementation of complete scheduler operating systems for embedded applications involving one or more microcontrollers
• creation of user interfaces with components including switches, keypads, LED displays and LCDs
• effective use of networking and communication protocols
• design of monitoring and control systems using, for example, PID algorithms and PWM

• Michael J. Pont is a Senior Lecturer in Electronic & Software Engineering at the University of Leicester.

• Embedded Systems with ARM Cortex-M Microcontrollers

  The book introduces basic programming of ARM Cortex-M cores in assembly and C at the register level, and the fundamentals of embedded system design, implementing basic controls and functions of C language at the assembly level.

• ARM Assembly for Embedded Applications (Daniel W Lewis)

  A textbook teaches writing functions in ARM assembly called by a C program. The C/Assembly interface (function call, parameter passing, return values, register conventions, etc.) is presented in order to write simple functions in assembly.

• A Practical Introduction to Real-time Operating Systems (RTOS)

  This book deals with the fundamentals of operating systems for use in real-time embedded systems. It is aimed at those who wish to develop RTOS-based designs, using either commercial or free products.

• Mastering the FreeRTOS Real Time Kernel (Richard Barry)

  FreeRTOS is ideally suited to deeply embedded real-time applications that use Microcontrollers or small microcontrollers. This book provides a detailed explanation, with many examples, to help you understand how to use a FreeRTOS real-time kernel.

• Embedded System Design (Peter Marwedel)

  This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental knowledge in embedded systems, with applications in cyber-physical systems and the Internet of things (IoT), also a brief overview of hardware devices and the essentials of system software.

• Digital System Design - Use of Microcontroller

  This book concentrates on the use of a microcontroller as the Embedded System's processor and how to use it in many embedded system applications. It covers both the hardware and software aspects needed to design using microcontrollers.

• High Performance Embedded Computing (Luis M. Pinho, et al.)

  This book presents recent advances in software architecture and tools to support such complex systems, enabling the design of embedded computing devices which are able to deliver high-performance whilst guaranteeing the application required timing bounds.

• Embedded Controllers Using C and Arduino (James Fiore)

  This text is designed to introduce and expand upon material related to the C programming language and embedded controllers, and specifically, the Arduino development system and associated Atmel ATmega microcontrollers.
