Does anyone use assembler only with an ARM MCU?

Peter Grey

I have only used assembler when working with MCU's. I can follow a C program but have not used it in any commercial product. Can anyone suggest a development platform to start off learning the ARM and C? I would probably work on a Cortex M4F as a start.

Thanks

Peter

    Well a good start is the Cortex-M section of

    Important ARM Technical Learning Resources

    The Cortex-M series works well being programmed nearly entirely in C and it is worth putting a bit of effort into it and leaving the assembler for where it is really needed. The assembler experience will give you an advantage giving a feel for what is happening underneath. Overall considering how much extra time one has for doing the job right rather than debugging doing it in C can be a lot better than assembler. The compilers are pretty good nowadays.
