In previous articles, we looked at how to configure the kernel as well as the key components of an embedded operating system (OS). This new article focuses on the hardware components of embedded Linux ...

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.

How embedded AI hardware reliability is handled in the defense and aerospace fields. How that reliability is assured and tested. With artificial intelligence progressing into areas as diverse as ...

Why noise matters: Electrical noise can cause anything from minor glitches to catastrophic failures, making robust design essential in industrial and embedded environments. Smarter design methods: ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

Embedded control systems are increasingly connected to complex local area networks, such as controller area networks (CAN) with up to 100 nodes, ZigBee wireless control networks with thousands of ...

DigiKey and Microchip are hosting a free webinar on embedded systems and software vs. hardware logic on April 30 at 10 a.m. CDT.

ECEN 5613 is a 3 credit hour course and is the first course in CU's Professional Certificate in Embedded Systems. It is one of the Embedded Systems Engineering program core courses and provides an ...

Embedded software developers have typically avoided hardware abstraction layers (HALs) by claiming that they decrease performance and increase code complexity. Unfortunately, when developers adopt a ...
