Embedded Computing Design

Mobility in healthcare environments allows for easier communication, efficiency, and flexibility as patients and medical providers are confronted with federal mandates and the overall trend of integrating more intelligent healthcare and advanced medical solutions globally. Mobile computing carts are one of many examples of how digital healthcare services are being utilized in medical environments to keep up with the demand for smarter and more modern medical solutions.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Tom Burke, Global Strategic Advisor for CC-Link Partner Association, also known as the CLPA, joins us again to discuss the impact of TSN technology on IT/OT convergence.

Programmable SoCs provide flexibility, determinism, and reprogrammable capabilities for wide range of applications where device customization and conditions regularly fluctuate. Applications like industrial control and home automation are examples of two environments where the ability to configure and make devices smarter for monitoring purposes is a must.

A system-on-module, or SoM, generally contains all (or most) of the functionality of a complete motherboard. One example of such a product is the Andromeda SoM family from Enclustra that just launched at embedded world 2023.

Aplex Technology, an industrial computer products solutions provider based in Taiwan, will be exhibiting at Embedded World showing off its vast product array. On display will be the company’s latest embedded systems and solutions for smart medical, food automation, smart manufacturing, transportation, and marine applications.

With a goal of bringing power efficiency, small size, and high performance to mid-range FPGAs, Lattice’s Avant architecture fits the bill while adding in advanced connectivity. Applications that can surely take advantage of this feature set include communications, computing, industrial, and automotive. Specifically, Avant is up to 2.5x lower power than similar class competitive devices; up to 2x faster throughput at lower power than similar class competitive devices; and up to 6x smaller package size compared to similar class competitive devices.

Automotive and industrial applications are increasingly integrating short-range wireless connectivity into their environments. However, these applications often deal with space constraints that can benefit from a small-scale solution that delivers flexible, advanced wireless connectivity to smart connected devices powered by embedded processors.

Our last stop on the road to embedded world ends at the embedded world Conference with a discussion between Embedded Computing Design's EVP, Rich Nass, and Axel Sikora, Chairman of the embedded world Conference.
