As contemporary devices strive for more connectivity, modern microcontrollers (MCUs) and system-on-chips (SoCs) for mobile, IoT, automotive, industrial, and consumer applications are gaining an increasing number of wireless connectivity technologies to support. As a result, developers of MCUs and SoCs need to either design appropriate IP themselves or license applicable IP from somewhere. Meanwhile, the fastest way to integrate support for multiple wireless standards is to license them from one shop. To simplify integration of wireless interfaces for its customers, Ceva this month introduced ..read more

Traco Powers TCI series is the first choice for industrial, ruggedized, or OVC III applications from 130W to 500W power demand. The TCI 130, TCI 240, and TCI 500(U) are three conduction-cooled AC/DC encased power supplies series between 130 and 500 Watt with a 4250 VAC reinforced isolation system. Traco Power’s new TCI line focuses on maximizing the proficiency of conduction-cooled systems as it offers superior temperature behavior when mounted on a metal chassis or baseplate. This way the TCI can deliver up to 100% of the maximum output power without the need for a fan. https://www.tracopowe ..read more

While open source has provided much value to the industry, are there costs or other issues we are oblivious to that embedded software teams are incurring? As developers and managers, we all love free software. The open-source software movement has driven the availability of standard software features at little to no cost. Those features, things like TCP/IP stacks, MQTT, drivers, file systems, and many more, would have cost companies tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars to develop themselves. In addition, open-source software, in many cases, has helped teams to deliver their products f ..read more
