Understanding CPUs in Embedded Development

Understanding CPUs in Embedded Development

CPU is an important part of digital processing systems. In my view, microcontrollers, microprocessors, and DSPs can all be referred to as CPUs, with their emphasis differing. Specifically, traditional microcontrollers are more focused on embedded computing, such as the commonly used 51, AVR, and ARM chips, which not only contain computational and control functions but … Read more

Understanding the Instruction Set of Cortex-M Series Processors

Understanding the Instruction Set of Cortex-M Series Processors

In most cases, application code can be written in C or other high-level languages. However, a basic understanding of the instruction set supported by Cortex-M processors helps developers choose the appropriate Cortex-M processor for specific applications. The instruction set architecture (ISA) is part of the processor architecture, and Cortex-M processors can be divided into several … Read more
