CHAPTER 15. C and the embedded environment
The C programming language was introduced, in overview, in Chapter 14. This chapter now aims to start applying that skill to writing real embedded C programs. It begins with that most essential of embedded requirements, the manipulation of individual bits, and then moves on to interaction with peripherals. While doing this, many more details of C are introduced, as they come up in example programs.
Examples in this chapter are mostly applied to the Derbot-18 AGV. They can all be simulated, so it does not matter too much whether or not you have the hardware. Most are unashamed reworkings of the Assembler programs which have appeared earlier in the book. By adapting Assembler programs, a comparison ...
