A key technology enabling fast-paced embedded media processing developments is the high-performance, low-power, small-footprint convergent processor, a specialized device that combines the real-time control of a traditional microcontroller with the signal processing power of a DSP. This guide helps you understand how to implement this technology.

With today's tight schedules and lower budgets, embedded designers are under greater pressure to deliver prototypes and system designs faster and cheaper. The author demonstrates how the use of the right tools and operating systems can make seemingly impossible deadlines possible. He shares many advanced, 'in-the-trenches' design secrets.

Guides readers through the wireless technology forest, giving them the knowledge, the hardware and the software necessary to design a wireless embedded device rapidly, inexpensively, and effectively. This book gives a thorough introduction to 802.11 technology and puts it into perspective against the other wireless standard options.

Deals with the rapid prototyping aspect of Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) use, showing designers how they can cut time off production cycles and save their companies money drained by costly mistakes, via prototyping designs with FPGAs first.

Offers a combination of technical data, example code, and descriptive prose you can find anywhere. This book can bring you up to speed quickly on PSoC, from memory management to interconnects. It helps you add brains and capable signal conditioning to a design with one chip, giving you extreme flexibility for a relatively low price.

Focuses on designing with Microchip's mid-range PIC line using MBASIC, a powerful but easy to learn programming language. This book illustrates MBASIC's abilities through a series of design examples, beginning with simple PIC-based projects and proceeding through more advanced designs.

In an embedded system, firmware is the software that directly interfaces with the microcontroller, controlling the system's function. This book covers every aspect of design from the system level to the component level, including system timing, communicating with the hardware, integration and testing.

A practical guide that provides instructions on how to achieve successful designs using a broad spectrum of different microcontrollers and scripting languages. It offers an introduction to working in the world of embedded design. It answers questions on which are the best products to learn, trainings to get, and kinds of companies to work for.

Focuses on TPM for embedded designers. This title provides a foundation on the TPM, helping designers take advantage of hardware security based on sound TCG standards. It covers the TPM basics, discussing in detail the TPM Key Hierarchy and the Trusted Platform Module specification. It also includes an accompanying CD-ROM with full source code.

Provides a comprehensive reference for firmware developers looking to increase their skills and productivity. This work addresses each critical step of the development process in detail, including how to optimize hardware design for better firmware. It includes a CD-ROM that contains the code used in the design examples.
