The start-up code is the first piece of code executed by a microcontroller (MCU) immediately after a Power-On Reset (POR). Its main responsibility is to prepare the MCU’s hardware so that the actual application can run smoothly. The main purpose of start-up code initializes critical components such as the stack, system memory, and configuration settings. […]
