Making Embedded Systems

Design Patterns for Great Software

By: Elecia White

Narrated by: April Doty

Interested in developing embedded systems? Since they don't tolerate inefficiency, these systems require a disciplined approach to programming. This accessible guide helps you cultivate good development practices based on classic software design patterns and new patterns unique to embedded programming.

Written by an expert who has created systems ranging from DNA scanners to children's toys, this book is ideal for intermediate and experienced programmers, no matter what platform you use. This expanded second edition includes new chapters on IoT and networked sensors, motors and movement, debugging, data handling strategies, and more.

In this book, you'll learn how to optimize your system to reduce cost and increase performance; develop an architecture that makes your software robust in resource-constrained environments; explore sensors, displays, motors, and other I/O devices; and reduce RAM and power consumption, code space, and processor cycles. The book also covers interpreting schematics, datasheets, and power requirements; implementing complex mathematics and machine learning on small processors; and designing effective embedded systems for IoT and networked sensors.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Comprehensive Guide to Embedded Systems for all levels of reader/listener.

Excellently overview of embedded systems, even providing additional resources for further topic research while providing detailed examples. Enjoyed topics and listening so much I also purchased a hard copy for later reference/review. Both author and narrator did a phenomenal job at delivering technically specific information in a non-robotic fashion. Would highly recommend
