Embedded Systems: Introduction to Arm® Cortex™-M Microcontrollers , Fifth Edition 5th Edition

I bought this book to go along with Professor Valvano's wonderful course on edx.org, "UT.6.02x Embedded Systems - Shape the World". This book makes the concepts really clear for beginners and is written in a friendly style. It's probably one of the best introductions into the world of embedded systems for newcomers, students and hobbyists. Even though this is a bit pricey for Indian customers, the content makes it absolutely worthwhile. I want to than Professor Valvano for this great book and course.

This is book is good for those who need to learn basic concept about programming and circuit in the micro controller field, I mean this book starts with a simple Digital design explanation, and then you will find a summary in electronic circuit but the most important is the way that this book explains the architecture of this micro controller and also explains the best way to program, I think this book is perfect for beginner and students who expects to know more about this specific micro controller architecture.

It's super hard to teach embedded systems to people who haven't learned all that much about compiles and computer architecture. I used this as a first year text book before I learned about compilers and comp arch and it is good as it gets. Great Teacher. too.

i had to buy this book because it is the textbook for quite a few of the Electrical Engineering courses at UT. this book is actually written by my professor, and it is fairly well written and very detailed about the ARM cortex-M3 microcontroller. all the instruction are thoroughly explained with examples. i have no complaint about it, and it is really useful.

*** DO NOT BUY THE KINDLE VERSION, BUY A BOUND COPY ***Assuming that you have made the decision to purchase, at least get bound copy.The content of the book is not bad. I got through three first 3 chapters and hated it because I couldn't understand what was going on, then I picked up the bound copy and figured out why. The pages are really wide so they don't fit in a kindle page correctly and the examples are all smooshed together making the examples very discontinuous.After figuring this out purchasing the bound copy, the content is only so so. It doesn't show examples from start for finish, it only seams to show examples bits of assembly code. If you have written assembly before, then I sure it would be fine because you would understand how to implement the code. However, it does show the bits of code next to a C version of the code which helps.*** Update *** This book was actually written to compliment the authors class so if you look, you can find their website which does have a lot of useful material. The additional material is organized well and tell which chapters in the book it's complimenting.

Using newer microcontrollers in the industry is pretty tough and this book makes it easier. I don't know what I would do without this.

Excellent introduction. There is a lot of sample code including Assembly and C. You will be guaranteed to learn a lot if you put in the time.

The book helped me understand more assembly language programming environment especially Keil had not seen before, the book also presents practical examples and teaching. I recommend the book is very good.
