Embedded systems are a ubiquitous component of our everyday lives.
We interact with hundreds of tiny computers every day that are
embedded into our houses, our cars, our toys, and our work. As our
world has become more complex, so have the capabilities of the
microcontrollers embedded into our devices. The ARM(r) Cortex -M
family represents the new class of microcontroller much more
powerful than the devices available ten years ago. The purpose of
this book is to present the design methodology to train young
engineers to understand the basic building blocks that comprise
devices like a cell phone, an MP3 player, a pacemaker, antilock
brakes, and an engine controller. This book, now in its second
edition (Jan 2014, 2nd printing), is the third in a series of three
books that teach the fundamentals of embedded systems as applied to
ARM(r) Cortex -M microcontrollers. This third volume is primarily
written for senior undergraduate or first-year graduate electrical
and computer engineering students. It could also be used for
professionals wishing to design or deploy a real-time operating
system onto an ARM platform. The first book Embedded Systems:
Introduction to the ARM Cortex-M Microcontroller is an introduction
to computers and interfacing focusing on assembly language and C
programming. The second book Embedded Systems: Real-Time
Interfacing to ARM Cortex-M Microcontroller focuses on interfacing
and the design of embedded systems. This third book is an advanced
book focusing on operating systems, high-speed interfacing, control
systems, and robotics. Rather than buying and deploying an existing
OS, the focus is on fundamental principles, so readers can write
their-own OS. An embedded system is a system that performs a
specific task and has a computer embedded inside. A system is
comprised of components and interfaces connected together for a
common purpose. Specific topics include microcontrollers, design,
verification, hardware/software synchronization, interfacing
devices to the computer, real-time operating systems, data
collection and processing, motor control, analog filters, digital
filters, and real-time signal processing. This book employs many
approaches to learning. It will not include an exhaustive
recapitulation of the information in data sheets. First, it begins
with basic fundamentals, which allows the reader to solve new
problems with new technology. Second, the book presents many
detailed design examples. These examples illustrate the process of
design. There are multiple structural components that assist
learning. Checkpoints, with answers in the back, are short easy to
answer questions providing immediate feedback while reading. Simple
homework, with answers to the odd questions on the web, provides
more detailed learning opportunities. The book includes an index
and a glossary so that information can be searched. The most
important learning experiences in a class like this are of course
the laboratories. Each chapter has suggested lab assignments. More
detailed lab descriptions are available on the web. Specifically
for Volume 1, look at the lab assignments for EE319K. For Volume 2
refer to the EE445L labs, and for this volume, look at the lab
assignments for EE445M/EE380L.6. There is a web site accompanying
this book http: //users.ece.utexas.edu/ valvano/arm. Posted here
are Keil uVision projects for each the example programs in the
book. You will also find data sheets and Excel spreadsheets
relevant to the material in this book. The book will cover embedded
systems for the ARM(r) Cortex -M with specific details on the
LM3S811, LM3S1968, LM3S8962, and TM4C123. Most of the topics can be
run on the low-cost TM4C123 LaunchPad. Ethernet examples can be run
on the LM3S8962. CAN and USB examples can be run on the TM4C123.
Although the solutions are specific for the LM3S/TM4C family, it
will be possible to use this book for other ARM deriva
