Blocking occurs every time a program waits in line for something to happen. For instance, the basic Arduino “Blink” example turns the LED on and calls the delay() function to wait for a timeout event in 1000 milliseconds. Then it turns the LED off and calls delay() to wait in line for another timeout event […]| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps
Q: How big should active objects get? A: As big as possible, but not bigger.| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps
The second of the Ten Commandments for C Programmers says: 2. Thou shalt not follow the NULL pointer, for chaos and madness await thee at its end. This post explains how you can setup the ARM Cortex-M MPU (Memory Protection Unit) to protect thy code from dragons, demons, core dumps, and numberless other foul creatures […]| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps

What are the main programming paradigms in embedded software? Which of them can be mixed together and which are like “oil and water”? NOTE: Embedded.fm is a weekly audio show created and hosted by Elecia White and Christopher White. The guests include makers, entrepreneurs, educators, and normal, traditional engineers. The show is a product of […]| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps
Is it possible to be agile and do modeling, state-machine design and code generation? You bet! Modern event-driven approach with asynchronous active objects, hierarchical state machine and visual modeling will let you go faster and avoid many bugs by design. Please listen and comment! NOTE: The Agile Embedded Podcast is run by Luca Ingianni and […]| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps
The popular “Modern Embedded Programming” video course now contains a segment devoted to state machines. If you really want to understand state machines, this is your ultimate resource! Video playlist “State Machines” What are State Machines? These lessons start a new segment about STATE MACHINES. The lesson starts with the biggest challenge of event-driven programming, […]| Modern Embedded Software | Quantum Leaps
