While microcontroller specs may be the first thing engineers look at when deciding on a device for their system, the ecosystem that surrounds the microcontroller is certainly very important, and ...

The new MCX microcontroller (MCU) portfolio features four new series of devices, built on a common platform and supported by NXP’s widely adopted MCUXpresso suite of development tools and software to ...

[Hugatry] wanted to replace the adjustment pot on an LM2596 buck converter with a microprocessor-controlled voltage. The regulator IC uses a divider to generate a 1.25V reference from the output. The ...

When designing a system, one of the most important design decisions is choosing what voltage domain(s) to use. Some voltage domains, such as 5 V, are good for noisy and harsh operating environments ...

The PIC24FJ64GA004 family is designed to meet a wide range of design engineering needs across a broad spectrum of industries. Specific application examples include: consumer (security systems, heating ...

The evolution of microcontrollers (MCUs) has significantly transformed embedded systems, shifting from simple, standalone processors to complex, multifunctional units that rival traditional systems-on ...

The Open Compute Project (OCP), a nonprofit organization that exchanges data center product designs and best practices across businesses, recently published its Open Rack Version 3 (ORV3) ...

Microcontrollers contain a broad range of features due to the numerous end-use markets they address. Typical microcontrollers come in 8-, 16-, and 32-bit versions and commonly are used in consumer, ...

One of the very first examples for an MCU or SoC usually involves the famous ‘Blinky‘ example, where an LED is pulsed on and off with a fixed delay. This is actually a lot more complicated than the ...
