The explanation of BDM/JTAG debuggers is one of the best I've seen [the book's] a needed addition to our art.
Book Description
* Hardware/Software Partitioning * Cross-Platform Development * Firmware Debugging * Performance Analysis * Testing & Integration Get into embedded systems programming with a clear understanding of the development cycle and the specialized aspects of
Understand the embedded systems development cycle and the specialized aspects of writing
software in this environment. You get clear explanations of how cross-development environments work, software/hardware integration techniques, and the key methods and technologies for each phase of the development process.
Reader Reviews
This book is not about writing software for embedded systems. If that is what you want to learn about, you should read David Simon's book, "An Embedded Software Primer". However, this book does an excellent job of covering the PROCESS of designing embedded systems, from microprocessor selection to system debugging, and discusses the many engineering tradeoffs that need to be made in the design of real-world systems. As a useful trilogy, I would recommend: 1) David Simon's book for learning how to write embedded software. 2) Jack Ganssle's "The Art of Designing Embedded Systems" for tips, tricks, and strategies on being a good embedded software designer. 3) This book, for understanding the engineering decisions that need to be made in the design of an embedded system, and for learning about the debugging tools and techniques available as well.
