How you organize your firmware project might seem like a minor detail. It isn't. It's one of the highest-leverage decisions ...

Embedded Developers are a Conservative Lot, and with good reason. An embedded system that has to last five years is a short run. Systems must go out the door well tested, which typically means using ...

Embedded software developers have typically avoided hardware abstraction layers (HALs) by claiming that they decrease performance and increase code complexity. Unfortunately, when developers adopt a ...

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 ...

This engineering specialization provides students with the fundamentals of embedded operating systems including a working understanding of how to configure and deploy a Linux based Embedded System.

Embedded system developers have a wide range of operating systems available to them today. Of course, the most straightforward operating system is to have no operating system! However, many systems ...

Prepare for Safety-Critical Embedded Systems at MTU. When software lives inside machines, failure isn’t an inconvenience—it’s a safety, reliability, and security risk. From vehicles and aircraft to ...

This installment starts a new segment of lessons about state machines. The subject conceptually continues the event-driven theme and is one of my favorites [1,2]. Today, you’ll learn what event-driven ...

Power the Future. Build the Code Behind Critical Systems. Explore microcontroller architecture and embedded programming methods, guided by experts in embedded systems. The on-campus and online Robust ...
