This book is intended as a hands-on
manual for learning how to design systems using the STM32 F1 family of
micro-controllers. The focus of this book is on developing code to utilize the various peripherals
available in STM32 F1 micro-controllers and in particular the STM32VL Discovery
board. Topics covered includes: Introduction to the STM32 F1, Skeleton Program,
STM32 Configuration, Asynchronous Serial Communication, SPI, SD Memory Cards,
I2C – Wii Nunchuk, Timers, DMA: Direct Memory Access, DAC : Digital Analog
Converter, ADC : Analog Digital Converter, Real-Time Operating Systems.
The purpose of this
book is not to make a microcontroller expert out of you, but to make you equal
to those who had someone to go to for their answers. Book contains many
practical examples, complete assembler instruction set, appendix on MPLAB
program package and more.
This note covers the following topics:
PowerPC Instruction set architecture, PowerPC EABI Conventions, PowerPC 555 Bus
Protocol, P6 Bus, PIT Timer - MMRs, Memories, The basics of Analog-to-Digital
Conversion, Using the MPC555 QADC module, Serial Communication and the MPC555
SCI Interface, Pulsed I/O and the MIOS unit, Operating Systems, Devices and the
Bootstrap Process, Real-Time Systems, Parity and ECC, Control Systems - PID
Control, JTAG, BIST and BDM.
