What Are the Advantages of RTOS in Embedded Development?

Potential Issues in Embedded Development 1 Concurrency Issues The efficiency of concurrent program execution is low when writing bare-metal software. Inevitably, there will be a massive while(1) loop in the main program, which contains almost all the business logic of the project. Since each business logic contains delay functions that cause loop waiting, this leads … Read more

Essential Learning for Embedded Development | Common Techniques for State Machines

Source:Embedded MiscellanyState machines are ubiquitous in embedded software. You might think, what’s so difficult about state machines? Aren’t they just switches? Switch is just the most basic point, and there are many more operations related to state machines that you may not have seen. Below, I will share several implementation methods. 1. Basic Terminology of … Read more

Essential Technical Knowledge and Career Directions in Embedded Development

Today, I will continue to discuss the technical skills required for embedded development.Embedded development requires “hardware-software collaboration,” which means that one must not only be proficient in software programming but also in hardware development. Even if one does not study hardware, they should be able to handle the Linux system aspects (files, networks, and various … Read more
