Just as in comedy, timing is essential to the success of a microcomputer design. Often it is quite possible to get one system functioning by simply interconnecting the various compo­nents. But it is ...

Structures (or “structs” in C) allow you to group several related variables and treat them as one unit. They are a mechanism for extending the type system of the C language by introducing user-defined ...

In modern electronics, embedded systems have become increasingly complex, incorporating a variety of sensors and components in many applications including IoT, computing, wearables and ...

Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...

One of the biggest dreams anyone has is to make a living doing what they love. For all hackers, makers, and DIYers with a passion for embedded systems, it may make sense initially to pursue embedded ...

One of the last things the Linux kernel does during system boot is mount the root filesystem. The Linux kernel dictates no filesystem structure, but user space applications expect to find files with ...

News Highlights New AMD Ryzen™ AI Embedded P100 and X100 Series processors combine high-performance “Zen 5” CPU cores, an AMD RDNA™ 3.5 GPU and ...

One of the biggest bottlenecks in the software development process for electronic products is that hardware is not available until late in the cycle. That means embedded software developers need to ...

From surveillance and access control to smart factories and predictive maintenance, the deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) built around machine learning (ML) models is becoming ubiquitous in ...
