ARMing up for embedded systems design
The three-day ARM Technical Conference this week in Santa Clara,Ca., this week provides
embedded systems developers with the best chance they will have this year
to get an up-to-date education in how to build applications on this architecture.
If you weren't able tot make it in person, be sure to sign up for our ARM Techcon
Virtual Event which will make the core general session content and
technical presentations available on line.
Tuesday is Chip Design Day,
with 22 classes on SoC architecture and analysis, design and
verification, and SoC design for power and performance. In addition to a keynote
address from Dr. Shang-Yi Chiang, V.P. of R&D at TSMC, some classes
I recommend include:
Pushing the
limits of performance
ESL
multi-core ARM design and verification
Low power
design: what's next after basic power gating.
On Wednesday and
Thursday there's more than 80 classes on software and systems design. A few
of my recommendations include:
Practical Cortex debugging
Using
Cortex-M in multicore designs
ARM
processing with a flexible FPGA
For even more on going support for information about designing with ARM devices, be sure to make Embedded.com you destination of choice. Collected in a recent newsletter for your reference is a selection of some of the Arm-oriented design articles, white
papers, and webinars offered on the site. My Editor's Top Picks are:
Building bare-metal ARM systems with GNU
Energy efficient C-code for ARM devices
Basics of porting C-code to and between ARM CPUs
I look forward to your contributions in the form of design articles, blogs and in the online dialog triggered by your responses.
