TIDeals has announced two year end specials.
“First up is the Stellaris Ethernet-enabled Intelligent Display Module with PoE RDK. Basically, this little number is the Stellaris Intelligent Display Reference Design Kit (RDK-IDM), and it offers a complete, open-tool graphical touch-screen user interface design solution for control, automation, and instrumentation applications. Included in the RDK-IDM is the Stellaris Intelligent Liquid Crystal Display Module(MDL-IDM).” Normally retailing for $219, TI has it for a limited time for $119.
Their second deal is Micrium’s uC/OS-III: The Real Time Kernel Textbook, which covers integrating Micrium’s μC/OS-III RTOS in your designs that incorporate Stellaris MCUs. “The book consists of two complete parts. The first describes real-time kernels in generic terms. Part II provides examples for the reader, using Texas Instruments’ EVM-EVALBOT, a small, robotic evaluation board.” It usually retails for $89.95, but TI is selling it for $45.
I’ve got this book. It’s worth the coin. Although I still prefer to use Free RTOS.
I think the book is freely available as a downloadable PDF in the Micrium website.
I found the link. All of the books are available free of charge (free registration required).
