SmartCore Express takes compact embedded designs to the next level with a module format that is almost 80 percent smaller than COM Express.

While C enjoys a good reputation as a strong and powerful language for embedded development, C++ does not have quite such a broad appeal. With today's capable and sophisticated C++ environments this is often an incorrect belief.

Audiences soon will expect video content on their terms: on demand and on devices such as PCs and mobile phones. This requires fundamental changes on the network side, such as in head ends or cellular base stations in the upcoming years.

How to use Atmel's AVR32 MCU reference designs to build a digital audio subsystem powerful enough to decode audio without a custom-built single chip ASIC audio decoder, flexible enough to accommodate the unpredictable shifts in user demand.

It's the house that Jack built. Jack Kilby and his work on the first integrated circuit continues to inspire an engineer, who 30 years ago was bitten by the technology bug.

The four main market drivers--robotics, green engineering, full immersion, and healthcare--were possible through advances in IC technology (price, performance, power, integration, development environments).

With humor and insight, Per Viklund from Mentor Graphics and How-Siang Yap from Agilent, present a different way to do RF and PCB design "in parallel."

Compiler enthusiast Guy Goldstein provides some programming tips on how to use your compiler to more effectively allocate memory as well as some tip for picking the right compiler.

Embedded systems design might be the last refuge of assembly language. Is it fading there, too?

From environmental sensing networks across the globe to personal processors in our clothes that detect nutrition and hydration deficiencies, the buzzword is no longer "embedded intelligence" but "embedded inter-operation."

"Portable" and "audio" have been synonymous since the first transistor radio became commercially available in the 1950s.

Part 5 explains the concept of orthogonality and introduces quadrature signals.

Portelligent President David Carey tears down Nokia's N95 mobile phone on the Electronica show floor.

Remember when we thought that embedded engineers would be willing to learn these things called hardware description languages?
