Description
Famed author Jack Ganssle has selected the very best embedded systems design material from the Newnes portfolio and compiled into this
volume. The result is a book covering the gamut of embedded design—from hardware to software to integrated embedded systems—with a strong
pragmatic emphasis. In addition to specific design techniques and practices, this book also discusses various approaches to solving embedded
design problems and how to successfully apply theory to actual design tasks. The material has been selected for its timelessness as well
as for its relevance to contemporary embedded design issues. This book will be an essential working reference for anyone involved in
embedded system design!
