copper side view
As FVM said, it's really not a technical term you hear with PCBs.
Traditionally TOP = Component Side, BOTTOM = Solder Side
although that terminology goes out the window when you're talking about densely-populated boards with components on both sides....
I supposed the term...
ez 430-f2013
Negative on the 4xxx series.
EZ430 only supports chips with the Spy By Wire interface, which as of now is the 20xx and 22xx chips (only a subset of the 2xxx family)
Re: C code for pwm
No one can give you C code for that without knowing the uC family.
Also, what is so hard about it? A duty cycle of 0% = completely off, 100% duty cycle = completely on, and in-between adjusts the intensity. The other factor depends on your hardware design -- the ballast...
learning rtos
Yes and no.
Many of the APIs can be similar (start timer, send a message, get a semaphore) but the major difference between an RTOS and a non-real-time OS is the scheduler behavior & implementation.
Things like priority inheritance, interrupt latency, preemption, scheduling...
stm32 vs stellaris
Luminary provides a very complete and thorough driver library (full source code) for their chips. Helped me get going very quickly.
Plus I personally believe that their evaluation boards/kits are superior to those available for the STM32 right now.
As for higher layer...
OK thanks for the explanation. I work so deeply in the embedded space (FPGAs, DSPs, processors) that I don't know anything about typical PC architecture.
Anyway I asked an IT guy here about what he would use for looking at a PC's LPC, and he said the only thing he knew of was this...
The following is not my content, it is cut and paste, but it does a very good job of explaining the difference between mutexes and semaphores:
The Myth: Mutexes and semaphores are similar--even interchangeable--operating system primitives.
The Truth: Mutexes and semaphores should always be...
mspfet synchronization error
Doesn't the EZ430-RF2500 kit come with compilers & demo software?
The eZ430-RF2500 is a complete wireless development tool for the MSP430 and CC2500 that includes all the hardware and software required to develop an entire wireless project with the MSP430 in a...
Re: vxWorks help
One other thing -- if you're talking about embedded code you can just cast a function pointer to a specific ROM address and de-reference (call) it.
general question about rtos
Regarding books and RTOS:
One that just came out, centered around PIC but has a solid chapter on RTOS:

And one that is coming in ~3months...
