This book, now in its fifth edition, is the first in a series of
three books that teach the fundamentals of embedded systems as
applied to the ARM(r) Cortex -M family of microcontrollers. This
fifth edition focuses on the LaunchPads based on both the TM4C123
and TM4C1294 microcontrollers. This first volume is an introduction
to computers and interfacing focusing on assembly language and C
programming. The second volume, Embedded Systems: Real-Time
Interfacing to ARM Cortex-M Microcontrollers, focuses on
hardware/software interfacing and the design of embedded systems.
The third volume, Embedded Systems: Real-Time Operating Systems for
ARM Cortex-M Microcontrollers, is an advanced book focusing on
operating systems, high-speed interfacing, control systems, and
robotics. The third volume could also be used for professionals
wishing to design or deploy a real-time operating system onto an
ARM platform. This first book is an introductory book that could be
used at the college level with little or no prerequisites. 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. This book is an
introduction to embedded systems. Specific topics include
microcontrollers, fixed-point numbers, the design of software in
assembly language and C, elementary data structures, programming
input/output including interrupts, analog to digital conversion,
digital to analog conversion. 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 this volume, look at the lab assignments for EE319K. For Volume
2 refer to the EE445L labs, and for Volume 3, 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(r) and Texas Instruments Code Composer Studio
projects for each of 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
ARM(r) Cortex -M microcontrollers with specific details on the
LM3S1968, TM4C123, and TM4C1294. Most of the topics can be run on
any of these microcontrollers. In these books the terms LM3S LM4F
and TM4C will refer to families of microcontrollers from Texas
Instruments. Although the example designed are specific for the
TM4C123, it will be possible to use these books for other ARM
derivatives."
