I am involved with the embedded software development for the telecommunications industry. I have zero experience before such embedded hardware devices
I have got a network processor board, which is shown in switching pipeline engines. In addition to the board, there is also a secondary board called "Piggy" (sounds for Ethernet connetion), and another serial line connection.
I am completely lost about these boards and serial line connections. What are they used for? I tried to use Google to search for some useful introduction or content but failed. Can anyone tell me what is the use of this pig child for the board? Any good references or books that explain this?
Thanks a lot!
To develop your embedded system, you will need a development host (a PC or workstation) Which hosts development tools, including cross-compilers, platform libraries, debuggers etc.), and a debug connection (usually a circuit emulator or JTAG debugger, but in some cases debugging on serial, USB or Ethernet for the target Running on target Supported through the software - though this is less reliable because since you are debugging, it can be corrupt or break the debug stub running on the same target).
When you have got together and can build, load and run the code on the target, then you may be in a position to ask another specific question. Writing code for this platform will depend on many things like processor type, programming language, target operating system (if any), real time display requirements, regulatory standards, product type standards etc.
How to access your specific hardware, no one can tell you that without documentation and hardware access to scamattics, and you can not do anything without it, in most cases, some knowledge of electronics is a specific would benefit.
