This is the second in a series of postings on how to minimize the memory consumption of an embedded system. As the title suggests, you’ll often get a nice reduction in code size if you are completely consistent in your HLL coding style. To show how this works, its necessary to take a trip into assembly language. […]

Minimizing memory use in embedded systems Tip #1 – Eliminate unnecessary strings
I already have a series of tips on efficient C, another on effective C and a third on lowering the power consumption of embedded systems. Today I’m introducing a fourth series of tips related to minimizing memory usage in embedded systems. Now back when I was a lad the single biggest issue in an embedded system was nearly always a lack […]
