  • Method and apparatus for the processor independent embedded platform
    Patent number: 9870337
    Abstract: A method comprises identifying resource needs of a plurality of peripherals and resource requirements of a plurality microcontrollers. The method includes comparing the resource needs of the plurality of peripherals with the resource requirements of the plurality of microcontrollers to identify generic resources common to the plurality of microcontrollers, wherein a first microcontroller and a second microcontroller of the plurality of microcontrollers provide the generic resources to processor pin locations according to differing architectures. The method includes assigning each resource of the generic resources to a fixed motherboard location, the assigning including assigning the fixed location to an interface pin.
