Using Safety Application Notes to Aid Safety Designs—Part 3: Improving Functional Safety Performance
May 11, 2026
After doing a first iteration of the failure modes, effects, and diagnostics analysis (FMEDA) on a safety function’s circuit, there can only be two outcomes. The first is that the system integrity level (SIL) requirements are achieved, and the second is a failure to meet the requirements.

Mouser Product of the Week: NXP Semiconductors’ FRDM-A-S32K312 Evaluation Board
May 11, 2026
Embedded automotive, industrial, and IoT applications need a reliable, versatile, and robust platform that supports the development and prototyping of safety-critical systems. Developers of these applications need to design, test, and evaluate the performance of these systems before they are deployed into the real world, and a ready-made platform board can help.

Ada Is a Memory-Safe Language. It's Also Not New. That's the Point.
May 4, 2026
The NSA and CISA published a cybersecurity information sheet in 2022 recommending that developers move to memory-safe languages. It was updated in 2023, then again in June 2025. These reports sparked extensive global discussion about the use of memory-safe languages in critical software. Other regulations, such as the European Cyber Resilience Act, do not explicitly mention technologies like memory safety but instead focus on higher-level concepts such as 'state-of-the-art' and 'secure-by-design'.

How Synthetic DNA for Data Storage Could Help the Memory Crisis
May 1, 2026
If you haven’t already heard, we’re in a memory crisis. More specifically, we’re in a global memory chip shortage, which began in late 2025 and is likely to persist into 2027, according to the International Data Corporation.
This shortage is caused by the exponential increase in high-performance AI models and the amount of data and subsequent data centers required to keep them running.

Industrial Automation is Advancing with AI, and the Opportunity is Huge
April 30, 2026
Ever since Physical AI became the hype term of the day, it’s rubbed me a bit wrong.
As it’s commonly defined, physical AI describes the intersection of AI with the physical world and the compute process by which AI can sense, control, and act in the real world.

Using Safety Application Notes to Aid Safety Designs Part 2: Plugging in the FMEDA
April 28, 2026
After doing some sanity checks to confirm whether the assumptions in deriving the component’s functional safety (FS) failure rate, failure mode distribution (FMD), and pin failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), the next step system integrators need to take is to plug the data into their system’s failure modes, effects, and diagnostics analysis (FMEDA).

Embedded AI Isn’t Enterprise AI, and That’s a Good Thing
April 13, 2026
If you listen to the mainstream AI conversation, you might assume that every meaningful deployment requires racks of GPUs, enormous training datasets, and a Cloud energy budget that could power a small city. That perception comes largely from the enterprise AI world. Large language models, enterprise analytics platforms, and recommendation engines dominate the headlines.

Why In-Domain ASR Is the Missing Link for Real Edge AI Deployment
April 10, 2026
Over the past two years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been defined by the rise of large language models (LLMs). Systems like ChatGPT have reshaped expectations around conversational interfaces and reasoning. Yet when we move beyond demos and examine what is shipping in consumer and industrial products, the presence of AI at the edge remains surprisingly limited.
