Embedded C Coding Standard in Bloomington, MN

Barr Group's
Embedded C Coding Standard
was developed to help firmware engineers minimize defects in embedded systems. Unlike the majority of coding standards, this standard focuses on practical rules that keep bugs out - including techniques designed to improve the maintainability and portability of embedded software. The rules in this coding standard include a set of guiding principles, as well as specific naming conventions and other rules for the use of data types, functions, preprocessor macros, variables, and other C language constructs. Individual rules that have been demonstrated to reduce or eliminate certain types of defects are highlighted. The
BARR-C
standard is distinct from, yet compatible with, the
MISRA C Guidelines for Use of the C Language in Critical Systems
. Programmers can easily combine rules from the two standards as needed.
