Belajar Mudah Mikrokontroler ARM Cortex M0

Belajar Mudah Mikrokontroler ARM Cortex M0” merupakan sebuah pelatihan (biasanya inhouse training) juga sebuah buku sederhana. Sebuah pelatihan/buku yang cocok digunakan untuk pelatihan atau belajar solusi berbasis mikrokontroler, khususnya seri ARM Cortex M0.

The ARM® Cortex®-M0 processor is the smallest ARM processor available. The exceptionally small silicon area, low power and minimal code footprint of the processor enables developers to achieve 32-bit performance at an 8-bit price point, bypassing the step to 16-bit devices. The ultra-low gate count of the Cortex-M0 processor also enables its deployment in analog and mixed signal devices. (ARM)

Pelatihan/buku belajar mikrokontroler ini didasarkan pada penggunaan ARM Cortex M0 produksi dari Nuvoton seri NUC140, lebih tepatnya NUC140VE3CN, menggunakan bantuan papan belajar NUC140 Learning Board atau NUC140LB.

Pendahuluan

ARM adalah arsitektur prosesor 32 bit yang dibuat oleh ARM Holding dan dilisensikan untuk diproduksi oleh berbagai vendor di dunia termasuk AMD, Atmel, Freescale, Nuvoton, Nvidia, NXP, Samsung, ST Micro, dan TI. Prosesor ARM digunakan pada perangkat smartphone, tablet, dan embedded system. Kini ARM menjadi arsitektur prosesor yang paling banyak diproduksi di dunia.

Seri arsitektur ARM terbaru terdiri dari 3 lini kelas penggunaan yaitu:

  • ARM CORTEX A untuk aplikasi umum
  • ARM CORTEX R untuk aplikasi real time
  • ARM CORTEX M yang setara dengan mikrokontroler

Nuvoton launches NuMicro® Family —32-bit Microcontroller based on ARM® Cortex™-M0

Hsinchu, Taiwan (Jan/10/2010). Nuvoton Technology Corporation announces the launch of a brand new product line-NuMicro® Family, the 32-bit Microcontroller based on ARM® CortexTM-M0. NuMicro® family adopts the newest processor of ARM® CortexTM-M0, featured with smallest size, lowest power consumption, optimized instruction set. As a powerful microcontroller, NuMicro® Family is equipped with various built-in analog, mixed-signal components, and all kinds of high-speed communication interfaces, which enables users to upgrade their existing products from 8051 to NuMicro® Family easily. With the integration of features of wide range voltage input and EMI from 8-bit microcontroller, NuMicro® Family is particularly suitable for the industry controlling system.

Value-added NuMicro® Family

NuMicro® Family is the newest solution provided by Nuvoton to satisfy the worldwide 8-bit microcontroller customers’ demand with lower cost, yet higher performance 32-bit microcontroller. The operating speed can be up to 50 MHz, equal to 45 DMIPS (45 millions of instructions executed per second). The kernel of NuMicro® Family is also characterized by the built-in 32-bit multiplier, NVIC(Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller), and dual channel of APB, PDMA(peripheral DMA). For the memory system, this family has built in 32K to 128K Bytes Flash memory with 16K Bytes SRAM. In terms of the peripheral, NuMicro® family is equipped with high speed interface like UART, SPI, I2C, USB 2.0 FS, CAN, LIN, IrDA. Regarding analog components, it also provides 8 channel 12-bit ADC, 2 sets of analog comparators, low voltage detector and etc.. Four sets of 32-bits timer, RTC, watchdog timer, built-in oscillator also enrich the capability of NuMicro® Family. With all the aforesaid features, the whole system performance can be optimized for the NuMicro® Family.
