This Saturday (September 7), I will join Teacher Xintian (the head of the embedded course) to participate in the STM32 national tour seminar in Nanjing. First, let me introduce that STM32 is a series of 32-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) produced by STMicroelectronics, designed with an ARM Cortex-M core, known for its high performance, low power consumption, … Read more
For those who are still learning about embedded systems, you may feel confused about what to study and how to start learning. Today, I have compiled a set of learning plans for embedded systems, and this article will cover everything you need to know. 01 Basic Knowledge Learning 1. Master Programming Languages: 1) First, delve … Read more
Embedded systems are ubiquitous. Almost every electrical device you interact with is more complex than a simple light switch; it contains a digital processor that reads input data from its environment, executes computational algorithms, and generates some output to interact with the environment. From waking up in the morning (responding to alarms from digital devices) … Read more
Click the above“Mechanical and Electronic Engineering Technology” to follow us In the wave of modern technology, embedded systems play an increasingly important role. They are almost everywhere, from the smartphones and smartwatches we use daily to complex medical devices and industrial control systems, the application scope of embedded systems is becoming broader. Definition of Embedded … Read more
A ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) – A piece of custom-designed hardware in a chip. address bus – A set of electrical lines connected to the processor and all of the peripherals with which it communicates. The address bus is used by the processor to select a specific memory location or register within a particular peripheral. … Read more
When programming microcontrollers, we know there are two basic operations: bare metal and operating systems. Bare metal means a large loop running repeatedly. Today, we will discuss several commonly used operating systems. A Real-time Operating System (RTOS) runs tasks in order, manages system resources, and provides a consistent foundation for developing applications. Compared to general … Read more
Overview of Embedded Systems //From Hardware Perspective：“Embedded” integrates peripheral devices based on the CPU into the CPU chip itself. For example, early computers based on the X86 architecture had CPUs that only performed computation and accumulation functions. All chips needed external bridges to expand functionality, such as serial ports that relied on external 16C550/2 serial … Read more
Currently,X86 and ARM architectures are recognized as the two most outstanding architectures in the commercialization process. Previously, we introduced the X86 architecture, and today we will introduce another architecture that has been on fire for nearly a decade, ARM. ARM architecture, formerly known as Advanced RISC Machine (earlier known as: Acorn RISC Machine), is a … Read more
At the recently concluded CES 2016, major chip manufacturers and device manufacturers engaged in a fierce competition in the air, making drones a hot new product. The reason is that if drones are positioned solely as consumer products, their market capacity is quite limited, and manufacturers’ enthusiasm would not be so high. However, as demand … Read more
Those working in the field of computer or electronic information must have heard of embedded systems and microcontrollers, right? Many people should know that these two terms are closely related to hardware systems. Just hearing them makes one think of circuit boards filled with chips and pins: However, if you ask what exactly embedded systems … Read more
