ARM的介紹和選擇
by YukuanMark
隨著國內嵌入式應用領域的發展,ARM芯片必然會獲得廣泛的重視和應用。但是,由於ARM芯片有 多達十幾種的芯核結構,70多家芯片生產廠家,以及千變萬化的內部功能配置組合,給開發人員 在選擇方案
單晶片的韌體？軟體？
by YukuanMark
剛接觸寫韌體的工程師，往往可能是以前是寫個人電腦的應用軟體的機會很多，或許，現在寫韌體的工程師越來越少呢？還是現在寫單晶片的系統工具比較好呢？所以，許多寫韌體工程師所受的
Enjoy the Fine Code

由〈初等概念〉文末附的 links，我尋線逛到 Dan Saks 在 Embedded.com 發表的專欄，並發現許多精緻優雅的 C 程式片段，堪稱為程式中的小品文，值得好好駐足欣賞：

Embedded System Design
by YukuanMark
This book presents the traditionally distinct fields of software and hardware design in a new unified approach. It covers trends and challenges, introduces the design and use of single-purpose processors ("hardware") and general-purpose processors ("softw
Patterns for Time-Triggered Embedded Systems
by YukuanMark
Embedded software is ubiquitous. It forms a core component of an enormous range of systems, from aircraft, passenger cars and medical equipment, to childrens’ toys, video recorders and microwave ovens. This book provides a complete and coherent set of s
Embedded C
by YukuanMark
Use of embedded processors in passenger cars, mobile phones, medical medical equipment, aerospace systems and defence systems is widespread, and even everyday domestic appliances such as dish washers, televisions, washing machines and video recorders now
Embedded System Design
by YukuanBlog
對一些小型的應用而言，把 OS 納入系統中，不但多耗用硬體資源，還可能使系統的複雜度增加了許多。
「甚麼情況下才需要把 OS 安置到 embedded system 內？」－－這是一個好的思考點。
Debugging Embedded Systems

Embedded System 的除錯，概念上跟 PC 上 Software 的除錯是相通的，那就是要運用科學方法，科學方法的步驟如下：
B#：作為嵌入式系統的輕量級程式語言
by YukuanMark
閱讀 [DeepObjectKnowledge, Inc.] 首席科學家 Michel de Champlain 與加拿大 Trent University 助理教授 Brian G. Patrick 刊載於 Embedded.com 的文章 [B# - A programming language for small footprint embedded systems applications: Part 1] 得
More ways to map memory
by YukuanMark
This is the third in a series of articles on accessing memory-mapped device registers using C and C++. In my previous column (November 2004), I discussed how small variations in memory-mapping techniques might lead to differences in the efficiency of comp
Place volatile accurately
by YukuanMark
In my last column, I advised you to use the volatile qualifier, but use it judiciously.1 This month, I'll present some specific situations to show why and how you should think carefully about exactly where to place the volatile keyword in declarations.
A Unit Testing Toy
by YukuanBlog
Unit Testing 的 framework，最早是由 Kent Beck 在 Simple Smalltalk Testing 中提出的。隨著 Java 的流行，及其和 Smailltalk 的相似性，Kent Beck 又完成了在 Java 下的 Unit Testing framework -- JUnit 。隨著 Extreme Programming 的熱門，以及 test-driven development 在實務上的成功，現在幾乎各種程式語言都有它們的 Unit Testing Framework ，大家都來 Unit 一下，被通稱為 XUnit。
