Product Description
Product Description
Learn to interface and program hardware devices in a wide range of useful applications, using ARM7 microcontrollers and the C programming language. Examples covered in full detail include a simple LED to a multi-megabyte SD card running the FAT file system. Features of the book include: Build prototype circuits on breadboard or Veroboard and interface to ARM microcontrollers; A 32-bit ARM7 microcontroller which is used in interfacing and software examples; Interfacing principles that apply to other ARM microcontrollers and other non-ARM microcontrollers as well; Example programs that are written in the C programming language; Use only free or open source software; Download and install all programming tools from the Internet; and, Template project files that are provided for easy project creation. Hardware - Interface to LEDs, transistors, optocouplers, relays, solenoids, switches, keypads, LCD displays, seven segment displays, DC motors, stepper motors, external analogue signals using the ADC, RS-232, RS-485, TWI, USB, SPI and SD memory cards. Software - Once hardware has been interfaced to a microcontroller, software must be written to control the hardware. You will learn how to write programs to operate externally interfaced hardware devices, use timers and interrupts. Also learn how to port FAT file system code for use with an SD memory card, program the PWM to produce an audio sine wave, program the PWM to speed control a DC motor and more. A chapter on more advanced ARM microcontrollers is included with an overview of some of the newest ARM microcontrollers and their features.

Format:Paperback
I've spent ages looking for a decent introductory book to get me into the ARM Microprocessor world without too many broken bones! This was pretty well the only one that starts on the first rung of the ladder and takes you up each step gently. Although it is officially an interfacing book, it covers many topics from both the hardware and software perspective. It is suitable for someone with a little programming experience to follow.
I didn't see a topic list, so took the time to get one together to help you make up your mind. I have put the total pages per topic, which shows how much of the book is dedicated to each topic:
1. Software and Hardware Setup p14 34p
2. Digital Outputs p48 45p
3. Timers and Interrupts p93 15p
4. Digital Inputs p108 20p
5. LCD and Seven Segment Displays p128 16p
6. DC Motors and Stepper Motors p144 13p
7. Analogue Signals and PWM Audio p157 20p
8. Serial Ports p177 20p
9. SD Memory Card p197 31p
10. Advanced ARM Microcontrollers p228 20p
Index p248
It is very well written and easy to follow. I expect it will be a good reference material for future use. I can also recommend looking at Warwick A. Smith's other titles too like his Intro into C programming... C Programming for Embedded Microcontrollers: Learn the C Programming Language using Free and Open Source Software on Embedded Systems with ARM7 Microcontroller Examples
