More applications for automotive microcontrollers (MCUs) emerge practically every day. Until recently most of these chips were used to implement and enhance a vehicle’s added-value features. That is ...

The new MCX microcontroller (MCU) portfolio features four new series of devices, built on a common platform and supported by NXP’s widely adopted MCUXpresso suite of development tools and software to ...

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 ...

In recent years, integrated platforms equipped with microcontrollers (with Arduino probably being the best-known brand) have been gaining popularity.

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

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

While DSPs are the primary controllers in uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with power-factor correction (PFC), ac generation and battery management, microcontrollers serve secondary functions for ...

The automotive electronics industry continues to expand its use of 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs). With the MCU being the cornerstone of electronic control modules (ECMs), from safety ...

From Caesar ciphers to AES and RSA, Practical Microcontroller Cryptography shows how cryptography actually runs on ...
