Description
Why care about hardware/firmware interaction? These interfaces are critical, a solid hardware design married with adaptive firmware can
access all the capabilities of an application and overcome limitations caused by poor communication. For the first time, a book has come
along that will help hardware engineers and firmware engineers work together to mitigate or eliminate problems that occur when hardware
and firmware are not optimally compatible. Solving these issues will save time and money, getting products to market sooner to create
more revenue.
The principles and best practices presented in this book will prove to be a valuable resource for both hardware and firmware
engineers. Topics include register layout, interrupts, timing and performance, aborts, and errors. Real world cases studies will help
to solidify the principles and best practicies with an aim towards cleaner designs, shorter schedules, and better implementation!
