Another technique common to both embeddedprocessor performance optimization and embedded processor poweroptimization is software pipelining. Software pipelining is a techniquewhere the programmer ...

Editor's Note: In this paper originally presented at Design East 2012, the author looks at issues and techniques for squeezing maximum energy from batteries in embedded systems in the following parts: ...

AMD on Wednesday at the Taiwan Embedded Forum unveiled its first accelerated processor units (APUs) for the embedded systems market, which it expects to release later in the first quarter of 2011. AMD ...

With data-transfer rates as high as 480 Mbps, USB 2.0 offers embedded-system designers a full spectrum of connectivity through a single connector. The USB On-The-Go supplement reduces bus-power ...

The trend toward multi-core devices is well underway in PCs, but in embedded systems, there's more focus on augmenting single-core devices with an array of peripherals. As geometries shrink, the cost ...

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, ...

For many years, the 8-bit microcontroller has been the workhorse of embedded systems. Design teams favor the size and power benefits that a tightly coupled processor, such as the 8051 microcontroller, ...

At the Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley 2007, the Santa Clara, Calif., chip giant announced the availability of the Quad Core Xeon E5335 and E5345 processors, based on the Xeon 5300 Series, ...

It’s often tempting to make one processor handle the entire system load. But sometimes adding a second processor is the best option. DESIGN VIEW is the summary of the complete DESIGN SOLUTION ...

Deep learning, probably the most advanced and challenging foundation of artificial intelligence (AI), is having a significant impact and influence on many applications, enabling products to behave ...
