Product of the Week: AAEON’s de next-RAP8-EZBOX for Industrial Robotics

Tiera Oliver

December 8, 2025

The industrial robotics landscape is continually evolving in response to increasing demands. Today’s modern robots must meet the requirements and continuous needs for smaller, more compact solutions in space-constrained environments, reliable system memory with high-performance operation that minimizes excessive energy consumption, and solutions that can react faster and make optimized decisions in safety-critical environments.

Advantech Teams With AMD To Maximize Performance at the Edge

Rich Nass

December 8, 2025

High-performance computing at the Edge involves systems that bring server-class processing closer to where data is generated. Instead of sending private information to the Cloud, devices at the network’s Edge, gateways, sensors, industrial controllers, cameras, and embedded AI platforms, run complex workloads locally. This is beneficial for applications like medical imaging, Edge servers, networking, and enterprise-level LLM (Large Language Model) deployment, and includes markets such as healthcare, industrial automation, smart cities, robotics, automotive, and advanced consumer devices. Its growth is driven by tighter latency requirements, rising data volumes, stronger privacy demands, and the need for more efficient, scalable distributed compute architectures.

Pattern AI Uses Intel to Create Edge AI Tools for Smart Delivery

Ken Briodagh

December 5, 2025

In warehousing, manufacturing, robotics retail and other supply chain delivery arenas, one of the factors slowing down crucial delivery times is an apparent shortage of agents to move products, but Pattern AI says this isn’t the case. Instead, it’s idle clustering of agents that leads to what seems like a shortage.

Engineering Real-Time: Lessons Learned While Chasing Determinism Part 3

Andrei Gorine

December 3, 2025

In part 1 and part 2 of this series, we talked about two key real-time scheduling algorithms and how they fit into our real-time database goals. We also covered why scheduling alone isn’t enough, and how precise time measurement, predictable rollback, well-placed verification points, and a bit of real-world profiling are what actually make “on time” possible.

We Must Embrace Innovation Where it Matters Most—on the Fab Floor

Joseph Cestari

December 3, 2025

The domestic semiconductor industry is at a critical juncture — with substantial investments, supportive policies, and soaring demand for artificial intelligence. Yet as the U.S. ramps up domestic production, I can’t help but wonder: are we on the cusp of unprecedented growth? Or are we teetering on the edge of a cliff?

Optimizing LDO Headroom Control with a Current Referenced Switching Regulator Design—Part 1: Noise Sources, Impact, and Strategies

Kyosuke Shimo , Ino Lorenz Ardiente , Aldrick S. Limjoco

December 2, 2025

This article explores the various sources of noise in switching regulators and their impact on different analog signal chain components. It highlights several noise mitigation strategies, including the use of low dropout (LDO) regulators as effective postregulation filters. The article also shows a range of solutions from Analog Devices (ADI) that deliver optimized LDO efficiency across varying load conditions and output voltages, while pairing good power supply noise rejection. One solution offers a new method for LDOs to control the headroom provided by switching regulators with current reference architectures.
