Creating embedded software can be a challenging endeavor. The experience can range from a well-defined and controlled process to shoot-from-the-hip Wild West-style development. No matter where ones ...

From flowcharts to firmware, the embedded design pipeline is evolving. This article examines AI’s growing influence on embedded design workflows.

The universe has a natural tendency to take an elegantly ordered system and allow it to decay into pure chaos. The embedded software development process is not an exception to the rule. An occasional ...

The annual show for the embedded electronics supply chain showcased many innovations in edge AI and connected, intelligent systems that can perceive and act in real time.

What are the main issues behind the “painful” process of embedded-systems design? Shortages of resources, components, and talent plague the design process. How the instability of toolsets and driver ...

There once was a time when system design was completely serial. Entire hardware platforms were designed, prototyped, debugged, and virtually completed before any software development began. Of course, ...

An elegant solution to many embedded software systems problems is leveraging data-centric software design. Data is at the heart of every embedded system. First, data is acquired through sampling ...

The role of an embedded software developer is quite a bit different from that of an embedded software architect. Developers often jump into the code with the pressure to knock out as much code and ...

The problem with today's existing methodologies is that verification issubservient to design. This principle requires a shift in paradigm,especially in designing complex electronic systems. Why?

Hardware engineers employ all kinds of design reviews and processes, including design for manufacturability and design for testability. It's time software engineers stood up and asked for what they ...

Neil Tyler talks to Eva Rio, a Product Manager at Tuxera, about the importance of reliable data infrastructure.

The battery management system (BMS) monitors, analyzes and adjusts when necessary, protecting the pack and making sure it consistently meets all requirements. BMS and battery are so intertwined that ...
