In any system design, there are always trade-offs that need to be made. Unfortunately, there is rarely a time when you can get your cake and eat it, too! Modern embedded systems have exceptionally ...

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.

With multicore embedded systems becoming so common, this article outlines some of the basics, reviewing the possible hardware architectures. Broadly, there are two options: Asymmetric Multi-Processing ...

News Highlights New AMD Ryzen™ AI Embedded P100 and X100 Series processors combine high-performance “Zen 5” CPU cores, an AMD RDNA™ 3.5 GPU and ...

Embedded system architectures increasingly feature multi-processor configurations with large numbers of independent buses and bus-bridges. Conventional design and verification strategies are not ...

The concept of using multiple processors or processor cores to build systems has really taken on a life of its own lately. The au courant term is “multicore” although that term means different things ...

Real-time operating systems (RTOS) and Linux each bring their own advantages for embedded-systems designers. With an RTOS, designers can build deterministic multi-threaded applications with low memory ...

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 ...

Heterogeneous multicore systems, that combine two or more microprocessors, are quickly becoming the de-facto architecture in the embedded industry. The asynchronous multiprocessing (AMP) software ...

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) late on Monday unveiled a new chip designed for enterprise data centers as it seeks to challenge ...

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 ...
