5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent content and easy to follow.,
By embedit32@aol.com (Tallahassee, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Embedded Systems Building Blocks: Complete and Ready-To-Use Modules in C/Book and Disk (Paperback)
An excellent book for those new to Embedded Systems concepts. Not really for experienced users but still a good solid reference. This book doesn't assume that you know everything already like most books. By using these ready to use C modules all the user needs to do is to make some minor changes in order to get a project off the ground. Concepts are explained very clearly with no nonsense and without being too simplistic. Topics are interesting. It even utilizes a real time kernel. ( his own but that's OK ) I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A hands-on and practical guide to low-level programming,
This review is from: Embedded Systems Building Blocks, Second Edition: Complete and Ready-to-Use Modules in C (Hardcover)
This book from Jean Labrosse is right in line with the author's other book (Micro-C/OS II): simple, right to the point and tremendously useful. The book really demystifies some concepts too often omitted in other books, such as real-time systems concepts. The author provides numerous pictures, which are far easier to understand that any written explanations. I can't wait to read more from Labrosse.

Excellent book if you have no....,

This review is from: Embedded Systems Building Blocks, Second Edition: Complete and Ready-to-Use Modules in C (Hardcover)
If you have experience in writing device driver (for any OS) this book is not the best choice. But if you don't, this book is an excellent one. This book takes you through each and every step involved in building various kinds of device driver for the system. The content is written to make sure you understand the concept(s).
