In this episode of the Embedded Insiders, Brandon and Rich discuss Silicon Laboratories recent divestiture of its infrastructure and automotive business units to SkyWorks Solutions. The sale includes the company’s power, isolation, broadcast, timing, and other products and IP. Silicon Labs CEO Tyson Tuttle said several years ago that the company is “all-in” on IoT, and this move appears to be him keeping his word. But was it the best move?

ADLINK announced a partnership with Altium to offer an automated SMARC carrier design process.

The e-commerce and online retail industries are experiencing exponential growth, resulting in more stringent demands being placed on logistics operations worldwide. Logistics companies and their suppliers are relying on automation more than ever to increase productivity and efficiency.

How do we transition from our historical lack of understanding about what’s going on under the hood of complex neural networks, and into an era of AI explainability around how these models operate?

A typical design goal is to maximize the operational efficiencies of your system. However, that likely includes designing systems around the latest GPUs, and that can be a daunting task.

ADLINK Technology has launched the LEC-IMX8MP SMARC module, the first SMARC rev. 2.1 AI-on-Module (AIoM) that uses NXP's next-generation i.MX 8M Plus SoC for edge AI applications.

The analysts all agree—the spend for AI hardware (and software) will be going through the roof in short order.
