When designing a system, one of the most important design decisions is choosing what voltage domain(s) to use. Some voltage domains, such as 5 V, are good for noisy and harsh operating environments ...

Microcontrollers (MCUs) have widely been considered the workhorses of embedded design – responsible for reading inputs, controlling outputs ...

As a result, this project is set up as a how-to for others looking to dive further into the world of microcontrollers that don’t have the same hand-holding setup as the Arduino. To take care of the ...

It seems like there’s an almost unlimited array of microcontrollers—from low-cost 8-bit varieties to high-performance 32/64 multicore systems. While some systems require little thought beyond cost or ...

Renesas Electronics, a premier provider of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced the expansion of the RL78 microcontroller (MCU) family with the introduction of the RL78/G14 Group. Renesas ...

It’s generally pretty easy to spot a microcontroller on a PCB. There are clues aplenty: the more-or-less central location, the nearby crystal oscillator, the maze of supporting passives, and perhaps ...

We used to need SBCs for these projects; modern microcontrollers handle them more easily and inexpensively while being easier to maintain.

Designed for work in circuits with varied voltage levels. Until recently, a very common problem faced by electronic circuit designers was the difference in supply voltage standards between ...

New family of MCUs helps automakers shift to SDVs with a range of zonal and electrification architectures Combines leading-edge core performance with embedded MRAM memory to enable ECU consolidation ...

A microcontroller runs AI in the vehicle, supports real time tasks, combines functions in one unit, and reduces hardware and ...
