Automotive embedded applications have traditionally been isolated, static, fixed-function, device-specific implementations, and practices and processes have relied on that status. There?s lots to learn for developers in the newly connected automotive sector ? domain separation, secure boot, defense-in-depth ? and they're all rocking the ordered worlds of many a development team.

An important factor in the selection, market positioning, and success of a product is the energy consumption of the entire system. Is one benchmark enough to select an MCU, an MCU family, or an entire MCU manufacturer? Are publicly available technical documents enough? 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The SMARC - (Smart Mobility Architecture) standard has in a matter of a few years become a major driving force behind the enablement of innovative ultra-low-power embedded computing technology solutions. Market demand and the disruptive influence of the Internet of Things (IoT) have already... (Read More)

Smart city applications typically rely on connectivity technologies foreign to the consumer world. Most engineers have by now heard of LoRa and Sigfox, which are technologies designed to collect data over a relatively large distances using direct communications between devices and a gateway in a star topology. However, mesh technologies similar to those used in the smart home can also play a role in Industrial IoT (IIoT) markets.

In a world obsessed with Internet privacy it?s surprising how little we talk about always-listening devices like the Amazon Echo. After all, a company that wants to learn intimate details about your life in order to sell you more stuff has a microphone permanently fired up in your kitchen.

MPLAB? ICD 4 unleashes unparalleled speed & flexibility

The new MPLAB? ICD 4 introduces a faster processor and increased RAM to deliver up to twice the speed of ICD 3 for the in-circuit debugging of PIC? microcontrollers and dsPIC? digital signal controllers

ICD 4 also introduces a wider target voltage range and an optional 1 A of power via an external power supply. For maximum flexibility, ICD 4 features a selectable pull-up/pull-down option to the target interface and programmable adjustment of debugging speed for greater productivity.
