The Definitive Guide to the ARM® Cortex®-M0 and Cortex-M0+ Processors, Second Edition delves into the architectures of ARM’s Cortex-M0 and Cortex-M0+ processors along with their programming techniques. Authored by Joseph Yiu, an ARM Senior Embedded Technology Manager, this book is replete with examples on utilizing features unique to these processors. It offers a comprehensive overview of the instruction set architecture, guidance on using several popular development suites, insights into software development processes, and tips for identifying issues within program code and facilitating software porting.
This revised edition highlights distinctions between Cortex-M0 and Cortex-M0+ processors such as architectural enhancements (e.g., unprivileged execution levels, vector table relocation), new chapters dedicated to low-power design principles and the Memory Protection Unit (MPU). It also details the benefits of the Cortex-M0+, including a single-cycle I/O interface for faster operations, improved energy efficiency, superior performance, and an enhanced Micro Trace Buffer (MTB) feature. Additionally, it includes updates on software development tools and Real Time Operating System examples using Keil™ RTX with CMSIS-RTOS APIs.
The book also provides detailed explorations of design approaches and considerations for creating ultra-low-power embedded systems that benchmark high energy efficiency in microcontrollers, along with practical applications showcasing the use of low-power features.
