Notes

  1. 1.

    Global variables by default are stored in the SRAM location. But generally, in microcontrollers, the size of flash memory is more than the size of SRAM, so if there is a large array of coefficients like FIR, filter coefficients are required and they can be stored in flash memory. But these coefficients cannot be updated during run time.

  2. 2.

    If there is a large array which is needed to be stored in RAM, then that array must be declared globally because by default, the size allocated for stack is less than the size allocated for global variables in RAM for Tiva series.
