Companion CD-ROM: reference directory

The reference directory contains reference material, mainly for the ARM microcontroller. In particular, you will want to have the [PDF] ARM Architecture Reference Manual at your fingertips. For example, you can use this manual (often called the “ARM ARM”) to look up specific information on how a particular assembly language instruction actually works. You need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (or another PDF viewer) installed on your computer in order to read these documents.

Please remember that you can find additional documents in other parts of this CD-ROM. In particular, you should consult the documents in the unsw/common directory, which have been written specifically for the Digital Systems Laboratory. You can also find reference documentation for the DSLMU Microcontroller Board itself in the board/doc directory.
