At Electronica 2026, while exploring the Silicon Labs booth, I came across a wireless networking technology that was surprisingly new to me, Wi-SUN. As embedded engineers, most of us are already familiar with technologies like BLE, Zigbee, Matter, Thread, and LoRa when it comes to IoT connectivity. But Wi-SUN felt different from the moment I saw the live demo running at the booth.

It’s something we’ve been hearing for years, India building its own microcontroller. But most of the time, those conversations stayed within labs, government schemes, or early prototypes. What’s been missing is a product that actually makes its way into the hands of developers and into real-world applications.

As I sit down to write this piece, I notice the fan whirring above and, for the first time, it occurs to me that it runs on an induction motor. So does every other fan in my office and my home. These motors have been around for a long time, not because they’re the best options out there, but because they’re cheap and do the job. BLDC motors have gained a bit of popularity, but are pricier and…

Q: India’s electronics narrative has clearly shifted. What, in your view, is the defining change in the market today?Bhupinder Singh: The defining shift is from intent to execution—at scale. Capacity is scaling, compliance is tightening, and decision cycles are…
Pace Robotics makes robots that paint… just not something you’d hang up at a gallery. As a part of our visit to this Bengaluru-based startup, we got to witness one of those robots in action at an actual construction site. They call it the Centa Painter, and it can spray putty, perform sanding, and apply paint on interior walls and ceilings, all things humans have been doing by hand forever and…
“Everything starts with the product definition,” is how G. S. Madhusudan, CEO and Co-Founder of InCore Semiconductors, began walking us through the complex web of players that bring a chip to life. Given that we were on a Google Meet, he picked an IP camera chip as his example, because it essentially functions the same way. The list of things this chip does includes
Interfacing with…
FPGAs have become a recurring subject in recent CircuitDigest features, appearing in themes of education and accessibility. In our interaction with Krishna Gaihre, CEO & Founder at LogicTronix, an "AMD-Xilinx’s Selected Partner (ACP) for FPGA Design and ML Acceleration," we explored the practical side of things. Before getting into anything about the company, it’s worth taking a step back…
Years ago, if you had opened the door to the hostel room of Venkat Rangan, you would have been greeted by music. One could say tinkering was something he always latched on to, because the door’s latch triggered the music from a system he built himself. "He's always been a tinkerer," recalled Vishal Srivastava, who studied alongside Venkat and now leads Marketing and Business Development at the…
