Embedded Systems Dictionary

by Jack G. Ganssle

Embedded Systems Dictionary Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This technical dictionary will define all of the most-used words in the embedded systems field - over 2,500 terms. Designed to serve both a technical and non-technical audience, this book defines advanced terms in two steps. The first step is a general, contextual definition that will serve the needs of less technical readers. The second step covers information in language that is appropriate to a serious technical reader. Some terms reference an appendix of white papers of even more detail.

Book News Annotation:

Intended for hardware and software engineers who design embedded systems, this dictionary explains the meaning, history, and purpose of the technologies, tools, abbreviations, and terms used in the field. The 2,800 entries include base-n, coaxial cable, DMA request, fuzzy logic, hierarchical state machine, Kalman filter, model view controller, potentiometer, SCR latchup, and transport layer.
