With the explosive growth in the use of microcontrollers, engineers who design products in fields ranging from computers to industrial electronics need to test and debug circuits that include ...

All electronic systems carry the possibility of failure. An embedded system has intrinsic intelligence that facilitates the possibility of predicting failure and mitigating its effects. This two-part ...

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 ...

The right blend of tools, technologies, and strategies can help developers harness the power of CD, enabling higher quality and more robust embedded systems. The convergence of software and hardware ...

Taken literally, embedded test is just that: test capabilities that exist wholly embedded within a system. Power-on self-test is an example as is a built-in performance-monitoring feature programmed ...

Applications like as smart cards and devices used in the defense industry require security to ensure that sensitive data is inaccessible to outside agents. This used to be a niche requirement met ...

A few years back, I needed a quick, low-frequency, yet very low distortion source to test an onboard micro-controller ADC to see if it had anywhere near the effective number of bits (ENOB) and ...

Recent surveys of working engineers in the electronics industry by the International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (iNEMI) found that testing memory and memory buses on circuit boards is one of ...

Every developer and team I’ve ever met has wanted to deliver quality firmware to their customers. No one starts out saying, “I want to deliver a buggy, unusable product to my customer.” Yet, how often ...
