Embedded Electronics

By textbook definition, Embedded Electronics can be defined as a system that “Integrates Hardware circuitry with software programming techniques to provide real-time solutions”. From age old pocket calculators to advanced automobile and security devices the applications of Embedded System continue to show a strong progress.

In this section we will discuss about the various embedded controllers and embedded development platforms including, but not limited to Arduino, Raspberry Pi, NodeMCU, ESP32, Microchip, AVR, ARM, MSP430, STM32, STM8S, Nuvoton etc. It also updates the readers with latest Embedded News and technology trends to help them plan and design their Embedded Projects with ease.

Anyone who is familiar with the right to repair movement must heard of the Framework laptop, which is a modular laptop made for easy repairs and upgradability. The Framework laptops offers many modules for customising or upgrading the laptop IO’s. A security researcher known as "spacehuhn" has created his own add-on module featuring an…
