      abstract = {This textbook for courses in Embedded Systems introduces  students to necessary concepts, through a hands-on  approach. LEARN BY EXAMPLE ⁰́₃ This book is designed  to teach the material the way it is learned, through  example. Every concept is supported by numerous programming  examples that provide the reader with a step-by-step  explanation for how and why the computer is doing what it  is doing. LEARN BY DOING ⁰́₃ This book targets the  Texas Instruments MSP430 microcontroller. This platform is  a widely popular, low-cost embedded system that is used to  illustrate each concept in the book. The book is designed  for a reader that is at their computer with an MSP430FR2355  LaunchPadTM Development Kit plugged in so that each example  can be coded and run as they learn. LEARN BOTH ASSEMBLY AND  C ⁰́₃ The book teaches the basic operation of an  embedded computer using assembly language so that the  computer operation can be explored at a low-level. Once  more complicated systems are introduced (i.e., timers,  analog-to-digital converters, and serial interfaces), the  book moves into the C programming language. Moving to C  allows the learner to abstract the operation of the  lower-level hardware and focus on understanding how to  ⁰́₋make things work⁰́₊. BASED ON SOUND PEDAGOGY -  This book is designed with learning outcomes and assessment  at its core. Each section addresses a specific learning  outcome that the student should be able to  ⁰́₋do⁰́₊ after its completion. The concept checks  and exercise problems provide a rich set of assessment  tools to measure student performance on each outcome.  Written the way the material is taught, enabling a  bottoms-up approach to learning which culminates with a  high-level of learning, with a solid foundation; Emphasizes  examples from which students can learn: contains program  examples that can be run for nearly every section in the  book; Targets a widely popular embedded computer, the Texas  Instruments MSP430FR2355; Covers both assembly language and  C language programming of the MSP430, with examples that  are meant to be coded and run on an MSP430FR2355  LaunchPadTM Development Kit directly; Describes specific  learning outcomes for each activity, so that the reader  knows why they are doing what they are doing, along with  abundant assessment tools, including concept checks and  exercises.},
