ABSTRACT
Manyelectricalandcomputerengineeringprojectsinvolvesomekindofembeddedsysteminwhich
amicrocontrollersitsatthecenterastheprimarysourceofcontrol.Therecently-developedArduino
development platform includes an inexpensive hardware development board hosting an eight-bit
ATMEL ATmega-family processor and a Java-based software-development environment.These
featuresallowanembeddedsystemsbeginnertheabilitytofocustheirattentiononlearninghowto
writeembeddedsoftwareinsteadofwastingtimeovercomingtheengineeringCADtoolslearning

Thegoalofthistextistointroducefundamentalmethodsforcreatingembeddedsoftwarein
general,with a focus on ANSI C.The Arduino development platform provides a great means for
accomplishingthistask.Assuch,thisworkpresentsembeddedsoftwaredevelopmentusing100%
ANSI C for the Arduino’s ATmega328P processor. We deviate from using the Arduino-specific
Wiringlibrariesinanattempttoprovidethemostgeneralembeddedmethods.Inthisway,thereader
will acquire essential knowledge necessary for work on future projects involving other processors.
