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 ...

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 ...

This role is ideal for students or freshers eager to explore Embedded Systems, Robotics, and AI/ML in a practical environment.

There are a number of system design factors requiring consideration when implementing an FPGA processor. Some of those factors include the use of co-design, processor architectural implementation, ...

This course provides an overview of System Programming for the Linux operating system, or software which is interfacing directly with the Linux Kernel and C library. The basic components of a Linux ...

Editor’s note: I (Steve Taranovich) was a pure analog engineer with Burr-Brown Corp. until the year 2000 when Texas Instruments integrated Burr-Brown into its organization. At that point, I knew that ...

Teams developing firmware and embedded software often develop their software on-target. While there isn’t necessarily anything wrong with using a development board to understand the processor, ...

Apply modern C++ to that module. Use constexpr for configuration constants. Replace raw arrays with std::array. Wrap resource ...

It is no secret that Linux has won the race in the embedded device marketplace. Tremendous advantages in Linux have broken almost every barrier to entry for using Linux on embedded systems across a ...

Because the operating system controls the resources (e.g., memory, CPU) of the embedded system, it has the power to prevent unauthorized use of these resources. Conversely, if the operating system ...
