Embedded systems are increasingly prevalent in nearly every aspect of human life. Innovations made possible by embedded systems are making our lives healthier, safer, cleaner, and more stimulating.

Discussions about CPUs often frame one instruction set architecture (ISA) against another—x86 vs. Arm, Arm vs. RISC-V, and so on. However, it’s common to use multiple CPU architectures in a single ...

AMD has launched its 5th Gen EPYC Embedded processors, designed to enhance performance and efficiency in embedded markets, leveraging the new "Zen 5" architecture. These processors, part of the EPYC ...

Every good hardware or software design starts with a structured approach throughout the design cycle, but as chip architectures and applications begin focusing on specific domains and include some ...

The last two articles have explored the five steps to designing an embedded software architecture. So far, we have seen a need in modern embedded systems to separate software architecture into ...

RISC-V is an open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) that rapidly transforms the CPU design and development landscape. Unlike proprietary ISAs, RISC-V allows free access to architecture ...

What is a dataflow architecture? Why Efficient Computer’s Electron E1 processor design is so radical. How the Electron E1 is able to be so power-efficient. My master’s degree work many decades ago was ...

This course provides an introduction to Kernel programming for the Linux operating system, and the development of Linux kernel drivers for Embedded devices. The Yocto build system is introduced, which ...

One of the biggest bottlenecks in the software development process for electronic products is that hardware is not available until late in the cycle. That means embedded software developers need to ...

We’ve explored each element in detail except for secure storage in the previous posts. Today’s post will dive deeper into secure storage and how it applies to embedded systems. Secure storage is often ...
