As computer systems become more and more ubiquitous in everyday items, the workings of those items will require some sort of digital controlling. Controllers that once handled large mechanical systems ...

MSC Embedded Inc., manufacturer of highly integrated standard board level products and customer-specific boards and systems, today introduced a new embedded platform designed for the fast development ...

Microcontrollers have proliferated into every nook and cranny of our daily lives from simple 8-bit devices that control our toaster ovens to powerful 32-bit DSPs that provide us with the rich media ...

Xilinx high-performance CPLD, FPGA, and configuration PROM families provide in-system programmability, reliable pin locking, and IEEE Std 1149.1 (JTAG) boundary-scan test capability. This powerful ...

The automotive electronics industry continues to expand its use of 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs). With the MCU being the cornerstone of electronic control modules (ECMs), from safety ...

Integrating processors, sensors, and data exchange functionality into everyday objects, the Internet of Things (IoT) pushes computing capabilities far beyond desktops and servers, weaving computation ...

In the last several posts, we’ve started to explore Embedded Rust. You’ve seen that the Cortex-M QuickStart Template is a great place to start. A generic template, though, isn’t going to help you ...

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 ...

Very often while developing complex systems, engineers have to greatly simplify the task of writing final user space applications. In this case it is desirable to move as far as possible from the ...
