Fundamentals of Multithreaded Programming in C

Fundamentals of Multithreaded Programming in C

In modern computing, multithreaded programming is a common technique that allows programs to execute multiple tasks simultaneously, thereby improving efficiency and responsiveness. In C, we can use the POSIX Threads (pthread) library to implement multithreaded programming. This article will introduce the fundamentals of multithreading in C and demonstrate with example code. 1. What is Multithreading? … Read more

Shared Memory Programming Techniques in C Language

Shared Memory Programming Techniques in C Language

Shared memory is an inter-process communication (IPC) mechanism that allows multiple processes to access the same memory area. It is highly efficient because data does not need to be copied between processes but is read and written directly in the shared memory. In this article, we will introduce how to use shared memory in the … Read more

Introduction to Bluetooth Controller (3-1) — Basic Piconet Physical Channel – 2

Introduction to Bluetooth Controller (3-1) -- Basic Piconet Physical Channel - 2

The previous article introduced how the clocks of the Central and Peripheral in a piconet are synchronized, as well as the time slots (hereafter referred to as slots). Now, we will discuss how to transmit and receive.1. Transmit/Receive TimingIn a piconet, the Central always starts transmitting on even slots (i.e., when CLK1=0), while the Peripheral … Read more

Detailed Explanation of MIPI CSI-2 Protocol (Part 2)

Detailed Explanation of MIPI CSI-2 Protocol (Part 2)

1. ECC MIPI CSI-2 uses a 24-bit ECC scheme. Inputting 24bit data, ECC encoding is performed to obtain an 8bit ECC result. Note: The 7th and 6th bits of the ECC byte must be 0. Data mapping relationship: Data identifier in the packet header DI[7:0] → corresponds to ECC input D[7:0] Low byte of word … Read more
