10. Stack Size Calculation Method
10.1 Stack Size Calculation Method
The MR100 provides two kinds of stacks: the system stack and the user stack. The stack size calculation method differ be-
tween the stacks.
z User stack
This stack is provided for each task. Therefore, writing an application by using the MR100 requires to allocate
the stack area for each stack.
z System stack
This stack is used inside the MR100 or during the execution of the handler.
When a task issues a service call, the MR100 switches the user stack to the system stack. (See Figure
10.1:System Stack and User Stack)
The system stack uses interrupt stack(ISP).
