Reusable Software Components: Object-Oriented Embedded Systems Programming in C (Prentice Hall Series on Programming Tools and Methodologies)

Provides an introduction to new and useful techniques for programming microcontrollers with the high-level language, C. Guidance is provided through every step, with detailed examples added for additional support. The code in Chapter Two is written for DOS-based machines, but the remainder of the book uses code written for the Motorola MC68HC16Y1 family of microcontrollers.

Helps real-time embedded systems designers combine the development benefits of the widely-used C language and object-oriented techniques not normally associated with C.Introduces object-oriented programming to microcontroller programmers familiar with C. Shows how objects can be written in C, and developed into classes. Presents useful objects and classes for microcontroller programs, including a class that creates instances of an asynchronous serial port. Shows how to implement components to handle timer functions and input capture. Compiles data sheets for all components derived in the book.Programmers working with real-time embedded systems.
