This course will give you the foundation for FPGA design in Embedded Systems. You will learn what an FPGA is and how this technology was developed, how to select the best FPGA architecture for a given ...

This course is used as the capstone in a three course sequence, including Linux System Programming and Introduction to Buildroot and Linux Kernel Programming and Introduction to Yocto Project. Both of ...

This article presents an introduction of microcontrollers as the first part on the series Embedded Systems Programming. It describes the structure and operation of the microcontroller, and the purpose ...

The very first step in starting an embedded Linux system does not involve Linux at all. Instead, the processor is reset and starts executing code from a given location. This location contains a ...

Designing an embedded system with security in mind has become necessary for many industries. The drive to connect a device to the internet allows remote attacks on the system. Developers who want to ...

It is not always easy to tell a book by its cover, and Computers as Components: Principles of Embedded Computer Design by Wayne Wolf fits into this category. The title alludes to a component-based ...

Embedded-system designers are once again emerging from their cubicles and laboratories to saunter up and down the aisles of the Silicon Valley version of the Embedded Systems Conference in search of ...

The design of embedded systems realised in System-on-Chip (SoC) form is increasingly turning to the use of configurable and extensible processors. Such designs start at a high level of abstraction, ...

Heterogeneous multiprocessor (HMP) systems, using functionally asymmetric compute elements, such as application processors and microcontrollers integrated within the same SoCs, are now used ...

Over the last decade, a sea change has occurred in the world of embedded systems, driven by the appearance of sophisticated new products such as PDAs and cell phones and by the continual increase in ...
