The STM32F103 microcontroller from ST is one of the widely used ARM microcontrollers. The blue pill board is based on STM32F103 microcontroller. It has a low price and it is widely available around the world. This book uses the blue pill board to discuss designing embedded systems using STM32F103. In this book, the authors use a step-by-step and systematic approach to show the programming of the STM32 chip. Examples show how to program many of the STM32F10x features, such as timers, serial communication, ADC, SPI, I2C, and PWM.To write programs for Arm microcontrollers you need to know both Assembly and C languages. So, the text is organized into two parts:1) The first 6 chapters cover the Arm Assembly language programming.2) Chapters 7-19 uses C to show the STM32F10x peripherals and I/O interfacing to real-world devices such as keypad, 7-segment, character and graphic LCDs, motor, and sensor.The source codes, power points, tutorials, and support materials for the book is available on the following website: http: //www.NicerLand.co

The AVR microcontroller from Atmel (now Microchip) is one of the most widely used 8-bit microcontrollers. Arduino Uno is based on AVR microcontroller. It is inexpensive and widely available around the world. This book combines the two. In this book, the authors use a step-by-step and systematic approach to show the programming of the AVR chip. Examples in both Assembly language and C show how to program many of the AVR features, such as timers, serial communication, ADC, SPI, I2C, and PWM. The text is organized into two parts: 1) The first 6 chapters use Assembly language programming to examine the internal architecture of the AVR. 2) Chapters 7-18 uses both Assembly and C to show the AVR peripherals and I/O interfacing to real-world devices such as LCD, motor, and sensor. The first edition of this book published by Pearson used ATmega32. It is still available for purchase from Amazon. This new edition is based on Atmega328 and the Arduino Uno board. The appendices, source codes, tutorials and support materials for both books are available on the following websites: http: //www.NicerLand.com/ and http: //www.MicroDigitalEd.com/AVR/AVR_books.htm

To write programs for Arm microcontrollers, you need to know both Assembly and C languages. The book covers Assembly language programming for Cortex-M series using Thumb-2. Now, most of the Arm Microcontrollers use the Thumb-2 instruction set. The ARM Thumb-2 Assembly language is standard regardless of who makes the chip. However, the ARM licensees are free to implement the on-chip peripheral (ADC, Timers, I/O, etc.) as they choose. Since the ARM peripherals are not standard among the various vendors, we have dedicated a separate book to each vendor. Some of them are: TI Tiva ARM Programming For Embedded Systems: Programming ARM Cortex-M4 TM4C123G with C (Mazidi & Naimi Arm Series)TI MSP432 ARM Programming for Embedded Systems (Mazidi & Naimi Arm Series)The STM32F103 Arm Microcontroller and Embedded Systems: Using Assembly and C (Mazidi & Naimi Arm Series)STM32 Arm Programming for Embedded SystemsAtmel ARM Programming for Embedded Systems For more information see the following websites: www.NicerLand.comwww.MicroDigitalEd.com

This book introduces basic programming of ARM Cortex chips in assembly language and the fundamentals of embedded system design. It presents data representations, assembly instruction syntax, implementing basic controls of C language at the assembly level, and instruction encoding and decoding. The book also covers many advanced components of embedded systems, such as software and hardware interrupts, general purpose I/O, LCD driver, keypad interaction, real-time clock, stepper motor control, PWM input and output, digital input capture, direct memory access (DMA), digital and analog conversion, and serial communication (USART, I2C, SPI, and USB).

Using FreeRTOS and libopencm3 instead of the Arduino software environment, this book will help you develop multi-tasking applications that go beyond Arduino norms. In addition to the usual peripherals found in the typical Arduino device, the STM32 device includes a USB controller, RTC (Real Time Clock), DMA (Direct Memory Access controller), CAN bus and more. Each chapter contains clear explanations of the STM32 hardware capabilities to help get you started with the device, including GPIO and several other ST Microelectronics peripherals like USB and CAN bus controller. You’ll learn how to download and set up the libopencm3 + FreeRTOS development environment, using GCC. With everything set up, you’ll leverage FreeRTOS to create tasks, queues, and mutexes. You’ll also learn to work with the I2C bus to add GPIO using the PCF8574 chip. And how to create PWM output for RC control using hardware timers. You'll be introduced to new concepts that are necessary to master the STM32, such as how to extend code with GCC overlays using an external Winbond ​W25Q32 flash chip. Your knowledge is tested at the end of each chapter with exercises. Upon completing this book, you’ll be ready to work with any of the devices in the STM32 family. Beginning STM32 provides the professional, student, or hobbyist a way to learn about ARM without costing an arm! What You'll Learn Initialize and use the libopencm3 drivers and handle interrupts Use DMA to drive a SPI based OLED displaying an analog meter Read PWM from an RC control using hardware timers Who This Book Is For Experienced embedded engineers, students, hobbyists and makers wishing to explore the ARM architecture, going beyond Arduino limits.

This book offers a quick and easy way to learn low-level programming of ARM microcontrollers using Assembly Language. The material of the book aims at those who has some experience in programming and wants to learn how to get more control over microcontroller hardware and software.Low-level programming comes into the category of more advanced programming and involves some knowledge of a target microcontroller. The material of this book is based upon the popular STM32 Cortex-M4 microcontrollers. It would be nice to have the datasheet, Programming and Reference Manuals on the particular STM32 microcontroller on hand while reading this book.All examples are developed using the NUCLEO-L476RG development board equipped with the STM32L476RGT6 Cortex microcontroller. The program code is developed using a free STM32CubeIDE version 1.4.2.The programming techniques described in this guide can also be applied to other development boards equipped with Cortex-M4/M7/L4 microcontrollers (STM32F4xx, STM32F7, etc.) with corresponding changes in source code. To develop the low-level code, the Assembler Language of STM32CubeIDE was used. This assembly language supports a subset of the ARM Thumb-2 instruction set that is a mix of 16- and 32-bit instructions designed to be very efficient when using together with high-level languages.
