Preface
™
This manual is an introduction to the Real-Time Library (RL-ARM
), which is
a group of tightly coupled libraries designed to solve the real-time and
communication challenges of embedded systems based on ARM processor-based
microcontroller devices.
Using This Book
This book comes with a number of practical exercises that demonstrate the key
operating principles of the RL-ARM. To use the exercises you will need to have
™
™
both the Keil
Microcontroller Development Kit (MDK-ARM
) installed and
the Real-Time Library (RL-ARM). If you are new to the MDK-ARM, there is a
separate Getting Started guide, which will introduce you to the key features. The
online documentation for the MDK-ARM, including the Getting Started guide, is
located at www.keil.com/support/man_arm.htm.
Alongside the standard RL-ARM examples, this book includes a number of
additional examples. These examples present the key principles outlined in this
book using the minimal amount of code. Each example is designed to be built
with the evaluation version of the MDK-ARM. If this is not possible, the
example is prebuilt so that it can be downloaded and run on a suitable evaluation
board.
This book is useful for students, beginners, advanced and experienced developers
alike.
However, it is assumed that you have a basic knowledge of how to use
microcontrollers and that you are familiar with the instruction set of your
preferred microcontroller. In addition, it is helpful to have basic knowledge on
how to use the µVision Debugger & IDE.
