As customers continue to adopt PolarFire SoC FPGAs, Microchip Technology announced the production qualification for the MPFS250T and the previously announced MPFS025T. Microchip also announced that its Mi-V ecosystem continues to streamline RISC-V adoption.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Brandon and Rich explore the imminent ratification of the MATTR standard and what opportunities it could introduce in real, regular life situations.

Microchip Technology announced a comprehensive ecosystem around AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) to enable accelerated development and a high level of system optimization while reducing total system cost. 

With security threats on the rise and attackers seemingly one step ahead of developers causing product development challenges in IoT, Microchip sought change.

I recently came across an 8-bit PIC MCU data sheet that predates 1982. That means it also predates Microchip as a company (incorporated in 1989), making it a remnant of bygone General Instruments days.

On this episode of the Embedded Insiders, Brandon and Rich discuss whether the IoT is “newer” than M2M or connected embedded, or has the name just changed while the definition remains the same? Perhaps it’s not new, it’s just moved to the edge and adopted “new” capabilities.

To offer developers access to high performing peripherals without sacrificing power consumption, Microchip Technology announced the SAMA7G54 Arm CortexA7-based MPU running up to 1 GHz.
