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 ...

As we continue the series on Embedded Systems Programming, this article will present the 2nd part, which is about the hardware or the peripheral circuitry required to run a microprocessor. It ...

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 ...

At the end of the second article in this series, which outlines a step-by-step process for embedded Linux development, we had the LBox up and running, ready to use for application development. On some ...

Here's another book, aimed at professionals, that covers designing embedded systems. Specifically, it's an introduction to the design of FPGAs and is aimed at “engineers in the trenches”, presenting ...

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.

For those embedded systems that can’t be constantly watched by a human, watchdog timers may be the solution. Most embedded systems need to be self-reliant. It’s not usually possible to wait for ...

When tasks share resources, as they often do, strange things can and will happen. Priority inversions in embedded systems can be particularly difficult to anticipate. Here’s an introduction to ...

This module is intended to equip students with the core knowledge of 'how hardware works' in digital systems and introduce the concept of embedded systems using examples/case studies. The module ...
