商品描述

This book is the second in a series of three books that teach the fundamentals of embedded systems as applied to the ARM® Cortex™-M3. The three books are primarily written for undergraduate electrical and computer engineering students. They could also be used for professionals learning the Arm platform. The first book Embedded Systems: Introduction to the ARM® Cortex™-M3 is an introduction to computers and interfacing focusing on assembly language and C programming. This second book focuses on interfacing and the design of embedded systems. The third book Embedded Systems: Real-Time Operating Systems for the ARM® Cortex™-M3 is an advanced book focusing on operating systems, high-speed interfacing, control systems, and robotics. An embedded system is a system that performs a specific task and has a computer embedded inside. Topics include microcontrollers, design, verification, hardware/software synchronization, interfacing devices to the computer, timing diagrams, real-time systems, data collection and processing, motor control, analog filters, digital filters, and real-time signal processing. In general, the area of embedded systems is an important and growing discipline within electrical and computer engineering. The educational market of embedded system is dominated by simple microcontrollers like the PIC, the 9S12, and the 8051. This is because of their market share, low cost, and historical dominance. However, as problems become more complex, so must the systems that solve them. A number of embedded system paradigms must shift in order to accommodate this growth in complexity. First, the number of calculation per second will increase from about 1 million/sec to 1 billion/sec. Similarly, the number of lines of software code will also increase from 1000’s to 10 to 100 million. Thirdly, systems will involve multiple microcontrollers supporting many simultaneous operations. Lastly, the need for system verification will continue to grow as these systems are deployed into safety critical applications. These changes are more than a simple growth in size and bandwidth. These systems must employ parallel programming, DMA synchronization, real-time operating systems, fault tolerant design, priority interrupt handling, and networking. Consequently, it will be important to provide our students with these types of design experiences. The Arm platform is both low cost and provides the high performance features required in future embedded systems. Although the Arm market share is currently not huge, its share will grow. Furthermore, students trained on the Arm will be equipped to design systems across the complete spectrum from simple to complex. The purpose of writing this book at this time is to bring engineering education into the 21st century. 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, provide more detailed learning opportunities. The book includes an index and a glossary so that information can be searched. The most important learning experience 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. The book will cover embedded systems for the Arm® Cortex™-M3 with specific details on the LM3S811, LM3S1968 and LM3S8962. Although the solutions are specific for the Stellaris LM3S, it will be possible to use this book for other Arm derivatives.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書是三本系列書中的第二本,旨在教授應用於ARM® Cortex™-M3的嵌入式系統基礎知識。這三本書主要針對本科電氣和計算機工程學生撰寫,也可供專業人士學習Arm平台使用。第一本書《嵌入式系統:ARM® Cortex™-M3介紹》是一本關於計算機和接口的介紹,重點是組合語言和C編程。這本第二本書則專注於接口和嵌入式系統設計。第三本書《嵌入式系統:ARM® Cortex™-M3實時操作系統》是一本高級書籍,重點介紹操作系統、高速接口、控制系統和機器人技術。嵌入式系統是一種執行特定任務並內嵌計算機的系統。主題包括微控制器、設計、驗證、硬件/軟件同步、設備與計算機的接口、時序圖、實時系統、數據收集和處理、馬達控制、模擬濾波器、數字濾波器和實時信號處理。總的來說,嵌入式系統領域是電氣和計算機工程學中一個重要且不斷發展的學科。嵌入式系統教育市場主要由像PIC、9S12和8051這樣的簡單微控制器主導。這是因為它們的市場份額大、成本低且歷史悠久。然而,隨著問題變得更加複雜,解決這些問題的系統也必須變得更加複雜。為了應對這種複雜性的增長,嵌入式系統範式必須發生變化。首先,每秒計算次數將從約100萬次增加到10億次。同樣地,軟件代碼行數也將從數千行增加到1千萬至1億行。第三,系統將涉及多個微控制器,支持許多同時操作。最後,隨著這些系統被應用於安全關鍵應用中,對系統驗證的需求將繼續增長。這些變化不僅僅是規模和帶寬的增長。這些系統必須使用並行編程、DMA同步、實時操作系統、容錯設計、優先中斷處理和網絡技術。因此,為學生提供這些類型的設計經驗非常重要。Arm平台既具有低成本,又提供未來嵌入式系統所需的高性能功能。儘管Arm的市場份額目前不是很大,但它的份額將會增長。此外,接受Arm培訓的學生將能夠設計從簡單到複雜的系統。撰寫這本書的目的是將工程教育帶入21世紀。這本書採用了多種學習方法。它不會對數據表中的信息進行詳盡的重述。首先,它從基本原理開始,讓讀者能夠用新技術解決新問題。其次,本書提供了許多詳細的設計示例,這些示例展示了設計過程。還有多個結構性組件可幫助學習。檢查點是簡短且易於回答的問題,提供閱讀時的即時反饋。簡單的家庭作業提供了更詳細的學習機會,奇數問題的答案可以在網上找到。本書包含索引和詞彙表,以便查找信息。在這樣的課程中,最重要的學習經驗當然是實驗室。每章都有建議的實驗室任務。更詳細的實驗室描述可在網上找到。本書將涵蓋Arm® Cortex™-M3的嵌入式系統,並提供有關LM3S811、LM3S1968和LM3S8962的具體細節。儘管解決方案是針對Stellaris LM3S的,但這本書也可以用於其他Arm衍生產品。
