Complex matrix inversion is used in LTE, WiMAX, and other communication applications. Here's how to do efficient 4x4 complex matrix inversion on the StarCore SC3850. Source code and a MATLAB reference model are included.

LED brightness goes from zero to 100% almost instantly. That property is welcome in a camera flash, but rather annoying for cabin lighting.

In this three-part series, Miro Samek introduces you to the basics of UML state machines basic notation, clarifying semantics, and provides some code examples and explains the advantages of UML state machines have in practical, everyday programming rather than mathematical abstractions. Part 3: Designing a UML State Machine.

Feature activation codes are a promising technology for embedded applications such as automotive, and can reduce costs, simplify production, and enable new and tailored business models for vehicular manufacturers and drivers.

Miro Samek's three-part series introduces you to the basics of UML state machines basic notation, clarifying semantics, and provides some code examples to the role of UML state machines have in practical, everyday programming rather than mathematical abstractions. Here's part two: UML extensions to the traditional FSM formalism.

Although biometrics is often the subject of cinematic hijinks, practical systems can be deployed for many embedded apps which enhance security, bringing real value and convenience to end users.

8 bits will never go away. In fact, various vendors have some pretty cool new parts available.

In this article series. Miro Samek introduces you to the basics of UML state machines basic notation, clarifying semantics, and provides some code examples to the role of UML state machines have in practical, everyday programming rather than mathematical abstractions. Up first: The over simplification of the event-action paradigm.

An almost "no-sweat" guide to adding MTBF software to your design.

A no-nonsense guide to what to do BEFORE you begin your embedded WiFi design.

Avnet's video surveillance platform pairs a TI DM6437 DaVinci DSP with a Xilinx Spartan-3A DSP FPGA. here's how the platform works, and how to get the most out of it.

We're tearing it up in Silicon Valley. See the inner workings of a deep-sea unmanned sub, a high-flying black box, and other cool stuff.

The manufacturing industry saw significant improvement in quality within the last few decades due to the implementation of Lean Manufacturing process and Six Sigma quality control measures.

Mobile IP is a dynamic routing protocol where end devices signal their own routing updates and dynamic tunnels eliminate the need for host route propagation. Need to learn about or brush up on Mobile IP? Here's your chance. This excerpt from Understanding Mobile IP, is an exhaustive and valuable tutorial.

An increasing number of high-power DC motors are used in automotive applications. Being smaller and lighter than previous versions, they have to draw higher currents in order to offer a suitable torque. The article describes a highly integrated MOSFET H-bridge for this purpose.

As software content has grown in embedded systems, the ability to develop robust software has not improved at the same rate, resulting in software that poses a serious threat to safety, security, availability, and reliability.

Here's how to calculate peak to average power ratio (PAPR) for single-tone signals, multi-tone signals, and IF signals.

Don't assume that every "secure" operating system is really secure.
