Embedded Controller Hardware Design (Embedded Technology Series)
Ken Arnold is an experienced embedded systems designer and president of HiTech Equipment, Inc., an embedded systems design firm located in San Diego, California. He also teaches courses in embedded hardware and software design at the University of California-San Diego.
Gives the reader an integrated hardware/software approach to embedded controller design
Stresses a "worst case" design approach for the harsh environments in which embedded systems are often used
Includes design examples to make important concepts come alive
Why Read This Book
You will get a practical, hands-on treatment of controller hardware that ties circuit choices to firmware implications and system reliability; the book emphasizes worst-case thinking and robust design practices that make your products survive real-world environments. Its worked examples and design guidelines help you bridge schematic decisions and embedded software constraints so you can design more dependable controllers.
Who Will Benefit
Best suited for early-to-mid career embedded hardware engineers, firmware developers who design or specify controller boards, and advanced students who need practical guidance on hardware/software tradeoffs and robust embedded controller design.
