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.
STMicroelectronics has introduced new STM32L4P5 and STM32L4Q5 Microcontrollers (MCU) that bring the performance of the Arm Cortex-M4 core to cost-sensitive and power-conscious smart connected devices, including utility meters, industrial and medical sensors, fitness trackers, and smart-home products. The STM32L4+ MCUs delivers the most economic performance in Compact…

Arm has introduced significant additions to its artificial intelligence (AI) platform, including machine learning (ML) IP, the Arm Cortex-M55 processor, and Arm Ethos- U55 NPU. These new devices are designed to deliver a combined 480x uplift in ML performance, the new IP and supporting unified toolchain allows the AI hardware and software developers to implement innovative…
An oscilloscope is the one instrument every electronics engineer reaches for when a circuit misbehaves. A multimeter tells you a single number, but an oscilloscope shows how a voltage changes over time: the shape of a PWM signal, the bounce of a switch, or the ripple on a sensor output. Bench oscilloscopes are expensive, though, and the best way to understand how one…
Ethernet is becoming more common in spacecraft to enable hardwired communication speed, support higher data rates, and facilitate interoperability between satellites and other spacecraft. As Ethernet in space applications continues to expand, Microchip announced the space-qualified Ethernet transceiver – a radiation-tolerant device based on a Commercial Off-the-…
