Mass Storage

Publisher Summary

In this section, the relationship between weight (mass) and performance of an airplane is generally well understood by most pilots and non-pilots too. Take-off is longer if too much weight is put on the wings. Generally, a pilot has to compile a weight and balance sheet and, sometimes when necessary, a scale to determine the exact numbers is used. It should be decided what is required to sacrifice such as some of the load or maybe some of the fuel. In many embedded control applications, a need for a larger non-volatile data storage space, well beyond the capabilities of the common Serial EEPROM devices is found. Certainly larger Flash program memory is obtainable inside the microcontroller itself. Some ...
