Description

If you have programming experience and a familiarity with C--the dominant language in embedded systems--Programming Embedded Systems, Second Edition is exactly what you need to get started with embedded software. This software is ubiquitous, hidden away inside our watches, DVD players, mobile phones, anti- lock brakes, and even a few toasters. The military uses embedded software to guide missiles, detect enemy aircraft, and pilot UAVs. Communication satellites, deep-space probes, and many medical instruments would have been nearly impossible to create without embedded software.The first edition of Programming Embedded Systems taught the subject to tens of thousands ofpeople around the world and is now considered the bible of embedded programming. This second edition has been updated to cover all the latest hardware designs and development methodologies.The techniques and code examples presented here are directly applicable to real-world embedded software projects of all sorts. Examples use the free GNU software programming tools, the eCos and Linux operating systems, and a low-cost hardware platform specially developed for this book. If you obtain these tools along withProgramming Embedded Systems, Second Edition, you'll have a full environment for exploring embedded systems in depth. But even if you work with different hardware and software, the principles covered in this bookapply.Whether you are new to embedded systems or have done embedded work before, you'll benefit from the topics in this book, which include:How building and loading programs differ from desktop or servercomputersBasic debugging techniques--a critical skill when working withminimally endowed embedded systemsHandling different types of memoryInterrupts, and the monitoring and control of on-chip and externalperipheralsDetermining whether you have real-time requirements, and whetheryour operating system and application can meet those requirementsTask synchronization with real-time operating systems and embeddedLinuxOptimizing embedded software for size, speed, and power consumptionWorking examples for eCos and embedded LinuxSo whether you're writing your first embedded program, designing thelatest generation of hand-held whatchamacalits, or managing the peoplewho do, this book is for you. Programming EmbeddedSystems will help you develop the knowledge and skills youneed to achieve proficiency with embedded software.Praise for the first edition:"This lively and readable book is the perfect introduction for those venturing into embedded systems software development for the first time. It provides in one place all the important topics necessary to orient programmers to the embedded development process. --Lindsey Vereen, Editor-in-Chief, Embedded Systems Programming Read more

    • Possibly a good book if updated
I purchased this book in an effort to learn how to program embedded systems. When I opened the book I quickly realized that the true strength of this book's potential lies in it's ability to pattern it's teaching off of an embedded development kit that I would need to purchase separately. I was okay with this and called the dev kit manufacturer from the appendix - arcom and tried to purchase the hardware development kit so I could follow along with the book. The Arcom distributor for my area indicated that the kit used by this book for this second edition was not only obsoleted but end of lifed and not available for purchase. This made me quite sad since without the hardware development environment this book becomes practically useless. That is a real shame. Perhaps the authors simply need to locate a dev kit that is available to their readers and do an update? As a previous embedded developer and hardware engineer I could probably go through the text and learn a handful of techniques, but embedded programming for me has always required some hardware platform. This is such a shame.... After being a loyal Seattle Amazon customer for so many years, I felt so strongly that this is my very first review after literally dozens and dozens of Amazon purchases. This is the very first time I felt my money was unfortunately wasted. ... show more

Very good book to introduce or reintroduce engineers and software into embedded development. The only issue is with the board that they chose, since it is no longer readily available. However the subject covered was very good and any good engineer should be able to replicate the examples on a different board. I highly recommend reading and rereading. I am an engineer and have to always keep my skills up to date. Easy to forget or develop bad habits ... show more

    • Very nice and useful
The book is in good state, with just a few written lines. Overall in good shape and very useful and most of all at a good price.

This book is too tightly bound to the development kit. If you don't want to buy that kit, then you're sort reduced to reading the book and hoping it sinks in.

Good material, my current class required this book and having in on my kindle was a pleasure. It is hard to get this in hard copy at a decent price.
