Inhaltsangabe

Fast growth in connected devices and the Internet of Things is fueling renewed interest in firmware development and the field of embedded programming. The field of embedded systems is all about developing the software that we don't think about but that runs all our many "smart" devices such as thermostats, refrigerators, stoves, toasters, keyboards, monitors, even our automobiles. Growth of the Internet of Things plays directly into a growth in embedded systems programming. This book teaches that field and helps readers get started in embedded programming and be current with the state of their new field.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Changyi Gu has worked for multiple high tech companies across California over a 15+ year career. He is the founder of PulseRain Technology, LLC, a company that is focused on FPGA and embedded system design. He started his career in firmware development. With a deep passion in engineering, he later devoted himself to wireless hardware and programmable logic. He is therefore lucky enough to see things on both sides of the fence between software and hardware. He graduated from University of Southern California with an MS degree in VLSI. He also holds an MS degree in Communication, and a Bachelor degree in Computer Science, from Shanghai Jiaotong University, China.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This is a book about developing the software and hardware you never think about. We're talking about the nitty-gritty behind the buttons on your microwave, inside your thermostat, inside the keyboard used to type this description, and even running the monitor on which you are reading it now. Such stuff is termed embedded systems, and this book shows how to design and develop embedded systems at a professional level. Because yes, many people quietly make a successful career doing just that.

Building embedded systems can be both fun and intimidating. Putting together an embedded system requires skill sets from multiple engineering disciplines, from software and hardware in particular. Building Embedded Systems is a book about helping you do things in the right way from the beginning of your first project:

• Programmers who know software will learn what they need to know about hardware.
Engineers with hardware knowledge likewise will learnabout the software side.

Whatever your background is, Building Embedded Systems is the perfect book to fill in any knowledge gaps and get you started in a career programming for everyday devices. Author Changyi Gu brings more than fifteen years of experience in working his way up the ladder in the field of embedded systems. He brings knowledge of numerous approaches to embedded systems design, including the System on Programmable Chips (SOPC) approach that is currently growing to dominate the field. His knowledge and experience make Building Embedded Systems an excellent book for anyone wanting to enter the field, or even just to do some embedded programming as a side project.
