The Definitive Guide to the Arm Cortex-M0

The Definitive Guide to the ARM Cortex-M0 is a guide for users of ARM Cortex-M0 microcontrollers. It presents many examples to make it easy for novice embedded-software developers to use the full 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0 processor. It provides an overview of ARM and ARM processors and discusses the benefits of ARM Cortex-M0 over 8-bit or 16-bit devices in terms of energy efficiency, code density, and ease of use, as well as their features and applications.
The book describes the architecture of the Cortex-M0 processor and the programmers model, as well as Cortex-M0 programming and instruction set and how these instructions are used to carry out various operations. Furthermore, it considers how the memory architecture of the Cortex-M0 processor affects software development; Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) and the features it supports, including flexible interrupt management, nested interrupt support, vectored exception entry, and interrupt masking; and Cortex-M0 features that target the embedded operating system. It also explains how to develop simple applications on the Cortex-M0, how to program the Cortex-M0 microcontrollers in assembly and mixed-assembly languages, and how the low-power features of the Cortex-M0 processor are used in programming. Finally, it describes a number of ARM Cortex-M0 products, such as microcontrollers, development boards, starter kits, and development suites.
This book will be useful to both new and advanced users of ARM Cortex devices, from students and hobbyists to researchers, professional embedded- software developers, electronic enthusiasts, and even semiconductor product designers.

• The first and definitive book on the new ARM Cortex-M0 architecture targeting the large 8-bit and 16-bit microcontroller market
• Explains the Cortex-M0 architecture and how to program it using practical examples
• Written by an engineer at ARM who was heavily involved in its development

* Provides engineers with a thorough understanding of how the architecture works by giving detailed information on the processor architecture, including programmer’s model instruction set and interrupt handling

* Many examples of programming the Cortex-M0, in both C language and assembly language, gives engineers the ‘up-and-running’ they are looking for, quickly

* Information on the software development flow including examples from various development tools for optimum efficiency

* Information regarding software porting from other processor architectures including other ARM processors

This is the first book to explain ARM’s new Cortex M0 architecture and how to program it from ARM’s leading engineer, Joseph Yiu, author of the successful The Definitive Guide to the ARM Cortex-M3. As well as being packed with examples on how to use the M0 architecture, the book gives detailed information on the processor architecture, an overview of the software development flow, and information on how to locate problems in the program code and software porting.

This book is ideal for embedded software developers, embedded product designers, students taking an embedded systems design course where the Arm Cortex- M0 is used, and electronics hobbyists.
