Book description for The System Designers Guide to VHDL-AMS: Analog, Mixed-Signal, and Mixed-Technology Modeling
The ARM architecture has grown to be one of the most widely used in the world over the past ten years, with over 2 billion ARM-based processors found in everything from cell phones to car braking systems. Software developers, system designers, and hardware engineers make up the global community of ARM developers in semiconductor and product design firms. The necessity of creating the hardware and software for an ARM-based system has not yet been specifically covered in any book. That is covered in this text. With a focus on software, this book offers a thorough explanation of how the ARM core operates from the standpoint of a developer. It shows how to optimize code in addition to writing effective ARM software in C and assembly. Throughout the book, there is example code that can be used as templates or integrated into commercial products to facilitate the rapid creation of useful software.
