Hi Friends, I have tried a lot about this. I donno if my mind is not good at this. I am trying to do an arithmetic calculations that involve multiplying a 32 bit integer with a floating point numbers. For example: 200 * 5.25. How can I write an assembly code for this on ARM7 LPC2292 boards. Please help me out with this. I am a started in assembly language programming. Thanks knight...


Embedded SQL implementations

Is there an SQL implementation that works well on lower end embedded projects? ARM7/Cortex type devices are primary what I am looking at. These chips can barely run a version of uCLinux, so SQLite isn't exactly an options. Was curious what, if any options are available for something like this. I am guessing most implementations will require too much memory to be of use here. ...

Hello, we are looking for development tools (IDE and simple In-Circuit Debugger) for the Philips LPC210x (ARM7) controller family, particularly at the lower priced end. At the Philips homepage, several systems are listed (mainly from the greater vendors like Keil, Nohau, IAR, Ashling etc.). Can someone recommend a good package to look at? Maybe there are some more makers of "smaller" de...

I have a client who needs to write program hex files to flash in installed AT91SAM2S256 chips. The board is fitted with the standard ARM 20-pin JTAG connector. I'm getting my head around OpenOCD and gdb, but they seem too complicated for a civilian. Would anyone like to share experiences with simpler software, possibly Windows-based? Recommendations for interface hardware, software p...

Over time most embedded design people reach familiarity with a controller and mostly C language. And with time we do get better performance and more functionality from the silicon suppliers. I work mostly with the LPC (ARM7) family and I am happy with it. I spend 3 hours reading a short article and looking at the tools of the new Propeller Chip. Parallax designed a simple 32 bit CPU and li...

Once I finish preparing the materials, I'm giving a short lunchtime presentation at work about estimating CPU loading and latency. I'd like to add some discussion about the difficulty of doing a simple count-the-cycles analysis on multi-cached, pipelined RISC architectures, where things start to get nondeterministic. I'm particularly keen to describe how this might affect ARM7[xxx] and ARM9...
