5 Books Every Embedded Systems Engineer Should Read

I’m not sure what it is about summer--whether it’s more downtime, more sun, or whatever the reason--but summer seems to be the perfect time to catch up on reading. I often get asked by readers and colleagues what books I recommend to get up to speed on embedded systems development. Whether you are looking for something technical to read at the beach or at the office over lunch, here are five books every embedded systems engineer should read (if you haven’t already).

These are just a few books embedded systems developers will find useful this summer as they recharge and prepare themselves for the challenges they face developing embedded systems in a connected world.

Have you read any good embedded systems books lately? Share with your colleagues what they are and how they helped!
