In previous articles, we looked at how to configure the kernel as well as the key components of an embedded operating system (OS). This new article focuses on the hardware components of embedded Linux ...

The rule of thumb in embedded system design has been that addinghardware increases power demands. The careful use of hardwareaccelerators, however, inverts the rule: adding hardware can reducepower.

What are the five primary and interconnected design decisions that must be addressed during the hardware design cycle? Embedded hardware designers face a wide range of design challenges and options ...

In the world of embedded systems, the language debate is alive and well. For years, C has dominated this space, its minimalistic design and low-level control giving embedded engineers the tools to ...

How embedded AI hardware reliability is handled in the defense and aerospace fields. How that reliability is assured and tested. With artificial intelligence progressing into areas as diverse as ...

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 ...

Embedded control systems are increasingly connected to complex local area networks, such as controller area networks (CAN) with up to 100 nodes, ZigBee wireless control networks with thousands of ...

At Embedded World 2026, Menta will present its standard-cell embedded FPGA (eFPGA) IP, enabling hardware reprogrammability to be integrated directly into production-grade ASIC and SoC platforms using ...

ECEN 5613 is a 3 credit hour course and is the first course in CU's Professional Certificate in Embedded Systems. It is one of the Embedded Systems Engineering program core courses and provides an ...

One of the last things the Linux kernel does during system boot is mount the root filesystem. The Linux kernel dictates no filesystem structure, but user space applications expect to find files with ...

SMARC targets applications constrained by size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C), such as industrial IoT, point of sale, medical devices, and other low-power mobile platforms. Variscite's SMARC family ...

TL;DR: Choosing the wrong hardware development partner does not just cost money. It costs months of rework, failed certifications, and missed market windows. In this guide, we review the best reliable ...
