National Instruments' Business and Technology Fellow Mike Santori discusses how field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are changing the way engineers design, prototype and deploy embedded systems.

Modern embedded systems are expected to operate with predictable timing, continuous reliability, and near-instantaneous response under increasingly complex workloads. From automotive control units and ...

The world of embedded systems is a dynamic landscape filled with constant evolution. Over my two decades in this field, I've witnessed significant transformations in how we build and manage our ...

The M75 dual-channel serial communications module works with the company's line of process control modules. The independent serial channels can operate in synchronous or asynchronous mode in either ...

As the capabilities of wireless networks improve and become more sophisticated, the expectations and desires of wireless-device users seem to grow exponentially. The result is an ever-increasing ...

Development cycles have shortened dramatically. So much so that there is no longer enough time to devise computer-powered applications starting with a standalone computer or processor. Consequently, ...

There’s probably no design engineer more familiar with working at a high level of abstraction than a software developer. Whether it’s creating PC software, embedded applications, Web services, or ...
