L26: Run time in embedded systems

Welcome to Lecture 26 of the course "Embedded C Programming" by Prof. Nitin Chandrachoodan. Full Course: https://study.iitm.ac.in/es/course_pa... Video Overview This lecture unpacks the concept of runtime in embedded systems, focusing on the sequence of events that occur when a microcontroller boots up. Learn about the system reset process, the role of the program counter, and how instructions begin executing from power-on. Explore the boot process that prepares the system for program execution, comparing bare metal programming with operating system-based approaches. Understand how code is loaded from flash memory, linked, and executed, and see what happens from the moment you power up your device until it runs your program.
