Developing an embedded system can be a challenging adventure. The blurring of the line between hardware and software requires engineers to live and understand two completely different worlds. Staying ...

At the intersection of hardware and software architecture, embedded systems are integral in applications including smart devices, wearables, autonomous systems, security and defense technologies, ...

I had lunch today with my good friend Grant Martin, who brought me a couple of copies of the new book, Embedded Systems Design and Verification, 2 nd edition, edited by Richard Zurawski. He had two ...

The Rabbit 3000 is Rabbit Semiconductor’s latest microcontroller line and it is covered very well in the book Embedded System Design using the Rabbit 3000 Microprocessor. It provides a look at the ...

It is not always easy to tell a book by its cover, and Computers as Components: Principles of Embedded Computer Design by Wayne Wolf fits into this category. The title alludes to a component-based ...

There are a number of system design factors requiring consideration when implementing an FPGA processor. Some of those factors include the use of co-design, processor architectural implementation, ...

In the world of embedded systems, the language debate is alive and well. For years, C has dominated this space, its minimalistic design and low-level control giving embedded engineers the tools to ...

Usable product life is a critical factor in the success of any portable device, and managing power efficiency is a key requirement for embedded systems today. Historically, power management was seen ...

How can you cover all the bases for embedded systems security? This step-by-step guide takes you through best practices. Embedded systems security is an essential concern in the modern landscape.

We’ve explored each element in detail except for secure storage in the previous posts. Today’s post will dive deeper into secure storage and how it applies to embedded systems. Secure storage is often ...

The rule of thumb in embedded system design has been that addinghardware increases power demands. The careful use of hardwareaccelerators, however, inverts the rule: adding hardware can reducepower.
