Nearly every embedded system requires some level of security, whether its just the basics to lock down the programming port or something more complex to protect a connected device from hackers. For ...

As computer systems become more and more ubiquitous in everyday items, the workings of those items will require some sort of digital controlling. Controllers that once handled large mechanical systems ...

MATLAB, short for Matrix Laboratory, is a high-level programming language and software environment developed by MathWorks. It excels in numerical computation, data analysis, and algorithm development.

The embedded computing universe includes computers of all sizes, from tiny portable devices--such as wristwatch cameras--to systems having thousands of nodes distributed worldwide, as is the case with ...

The newly opened multi-million dollar addition to the James E. Gleason Building of the Kate Gleason College of Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology now includes an Embedded Systems ...

The hardware design techniques employed for an application will establish the baseline immunity performance. The purpose of hardware techniques is to reduce the level or frequency content of immunity ...

Structures (or “structs” in C) allow you to group several related variables and treat them as one unit. They are a mechanism for extending the type system of the C language by introducing user-defined ...

In the last several posts, we’ve started to explore Embedded Rust. You’ve seen that the Cortex-M QuickStart Template is a great place to start. A generic template, though, isn’t going to help you ...

Free embedded operating systems Having introduced the common choices for free development tools above, let's briefly explore some of the operating system choices available to us. Fortunately, the open ...
