Abstract
An integrated-circuit radio communication device () comprises a processor (), memory (), and radio communication logic (). The memory () has a firmware module () stored at a firmware memory address, the firmware module () comprising instructions for controlling the radio communication logic () according to a predetermined radio protocol. The processor () is configured to receive supervisor call instructions, each having an associated supervisor call number, and to respond to a supervisor call instruction by (i) invoking a supervisor call handler in the firmware module (), and (ii) making the supervisor call number available to the call handler. A software application () is loaded into the memory () of the device (), and stored at a predetermined application memory address. It is arranged to invoke a radio communication function from the firmware module () by issuing a supervisor call instruction having an associated predetermined supervisor call number corresponding to the function to be invoked.
