The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...

Selecting the right amount of flash memory for an embedded application can be challenging. You want to make sure that you have enough memory to protect for future features, firmware updates, and more.

Based on the 32-Bit ARM-7 general-purpose microprocessor, the TMS470 series of microcontrollers contains seven devices with flash memory sizes from 64 KB to 1 MB. A high-end timer (HET) allows ...

The XC167CI-32F40F, XC161CS-32F40F, and XC164CS-32F40F 16-bit microcontrollers offer an embedded flash memory capacity of 256 kbytes and an on-chip PWM unit. They include a C166S V2 core with a 40-MHz ...

With the proliferation of IoT devices come increased embedded security attacks. Historically, embedded system engineers have ignored device-layer security despite the many areas of embedded devices ...

The use of RFID and contactless smart card technology is exploding and devices (e.g. tags, tokens, cards) all require embedded memory arrays that suit the needs of the application. All of these ...

Most of the energy an AI chip burns never goes toward actual computation. It goes toward moving data: shuttling model weights and activations back and forth between memory banks and processing cores ...

Programming electronic systems is easier than ever. MicroPython makes it simple to program affordable MCUs, from the ...

The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is an upgraded version of the original Pico microcontroller, featuring enhanced performance, increased memory, improved power efficiency, and new security features. It retains ...

Memory safety issues are one of the leading causes of security vulnerabilities in computing systems, including embedded systems. In programming languages like C/C++, developers are expected to manage ...
