Porting the Arduino Library to the Cypress Psoc in Psoc Creator
Porting the Arduino Library to the Cypress PSoC in PSoC Creator Matt Durak November 11, 2011 Design Team 1 Abstract Arduino, the open-source electronic platform is a useful tool to hobbyists in building embedded systems. It provides an easy to use library which includes components to work with an Ethernet board, called the Ethernet shield. PSoC is a programmable system-on-chip made by Cypress Semiconductor. It is a very flexible platform which includes an ARM Cortex M3 processor. This application note includes the steps necessary to port parts of the Arduino library to the PSoC in order to use Arduino software and hardware, known as shields, with the PSoC. The note will cover many issues which must be overcome in porting this software. Keywords PSoC, Arduino, C++, C, Library, Software, Porting, PSoC Creator, Ethernet shield Introduction Arduino Library The Arduino is an open-source electronics hardware platform that is designed primarily for students and hobbyists (1). Arduino provides the schematics to build the hardware, as well as kits which can be pre- assembled or just include the parts. This application note will focus on the software for Arduino. Arduino has its own open-source development environment based on Wiring, a platform for programming electronics (2). The software library used by Arduino is written in C++ and is also open-source and freely available (3). This library is composed of a low layer which communicates directly with hardware registers and provides an abstraction for programmers to set whether a pin is an input or an output and to read and write to those pins. -

Instrumentation Control Using the Rabbit 2000 Embedded Microcontroller
Instrumentation Control Using the Rabbit 2000 Embedded Microcontroller Ian S. Schofield*, David A. Naylor Astronomical Instrumentation Group, Department of Physics, University of Lethbridge, 4401 University Drive West, Lethbridge, Alberta, T1K 3M4, Canada ABSTRACT Embedded microcontroller modules offer many advantages over the standard PC such as low cost, small size, low power consumption, direct access to hardware, and if available, access to an efficient preemptive real-time multitasking kernel. Typical difficulties associated with an embedded solution include long development times, limited memory resources, and restricted memory management capabilities. This paper presents a case study on the successes and challenges in developing a control system for a remotely controlled, Alt-Az steerable, water vapour detector using the Rabbit 2000 family of 8-bit microcontroller modules in conjunction with the MicroC/OS-II multitasking real-time kernel. Keywords: Embedded processor, Rabbit, instrument control, MicroC/OS-II 1. INTRODUCTION The Astronomical Instrumentation Group (AIG) of the University of Lethbridge’s Department of Physics has been designing instruments for use in infrared and (sub)millimetre astronomy for over twenty years, with an emphasis on Fourier transform spectroscopy. Historically, these instruments have been driven by control software hosted on standard desktop personal computers (PCs). This approach has been highly successful, allowing for rapid and inexpensive system development using widely available software development tools and low cost, commercial off-the- shelf hardware. In the fall of 2001, the AIG began work on a remotely controlled atmospheric water vapour detector called IRMA (Infrared Radiometer for Millimetre Astronomy). IRMA mechanically consists of a shoebox-size detector system attached to an Alt-Az motorized fork mount, which allows it to point to any position in the sky, and is attached to the end of an umbilical cable, through which it receives its power and network connection. -

Embedded Electronic Coding System
1 GUARD FOR BLIND PEOPLE GUARD FOR BLIND PEOPLE ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION LITAM 2 GUARD FOR BLIND PEOPLE ABSTRACT Aim of this project is to design and develop the electronic guard for blind people on embedded plat form. This project was developed for keep the right way for blind people. It has two important units; they are object detecting sensor unit and micro-controller alarm unit. The object detecting sensor is sense the opposite objects, if the blind person is going to hit any object, the sensor sense that object and given to controller. The controller activates the driver circuit; it will produce the alarm sound, now the people easily identify the opposite object. ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION LITAM 3 GUARD FOR BLIND PEOPLE CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION LITAM 4 GUARD FOR BLIND PEOPLE 1.1 METHODOLOGY OF STUDY An embedded based electronic code locking system is designed and implemented using PIC Micro controller to make security. The entire project was developed under embedded systems. EMBEDDED SYSTEMS: A system is something that maintains its existence and functions as a whole through the interaction of its parts. E.g. Body, Mankind, Access Control, etc A system is a part of the world that a person or group of persons during some time interval and for some purpose choose to regard as a whole, consisting of interrelated components, each component characterized by properties that are selected as being relevant to the purpose. • Embedded System is a combination of hardware and software used to achieve a single specific task. • Embedded systems are computer systems that monitor, respond to, or control an external environment. -
