What are the main issues behind the “painful” process of embedded-systems design? Shortages of resources, components, and talent plague the design process. How the instability of toolsets and driver ...

Discover the essentials of embedded software and how hardware engineers can efficiently handle software responsibilities.

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 ...

Writing an effective driver time-out for an embedded system can be tricky. It’s tempting to assume that everything will work as expected, but that’s typically only the case in the lab. While ...

If you talk to almost any embedded team, they’ll tell you they want more code reuse. Reusable drivers. Reusable middleware. Reusable services. Reusable “platforms.” But when you look at most real ...

Compelling low-power and higher-performance embedded systems can now be realized by leveraging the advanced architecture and managed power characteristics of the IA-32 based Intel® Atom™ Processor.

This is the second of three courses in the Embedded Interface Design (EID) specialization, the online version of the EID class offered on campus at CU Boulder. This course is an introduction to rapid ...

Most motion systems have at least some embedded control. Now evermore-powerful data processing and chip manufacturing is being leveraged — so increasingly sophisticated firm and hardware is being ...

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 ...
