The Beer and Boards gatherings, where you get some hands on experience with a number of developer kits; The TI Technology Day, packed with technical design sessions and exhibits organized into eight special interest tracks; and ESC Hands-On Lab, organized into six meetings over two days on the show floor where you get hands-on training courses with hot technologies.
Here is how to take advantage of the just approved PICMG 2.30 specification for the CompactPCI PlusIO standard which enhances existing CompactPCI installations with the addition of high-speed serial communications.
If you're planning standardization on a single core platform to simplify the migration from one MCU vendor to another take care to consider the role the system peripheral functions will have in making this easier or harder.
Fingerprint analysis involves using fingerprint sensors and sophisticated DSP-based image-processing algorithms. Here's a description of the minutiae-based system for fingerprint analysis.
Security against the sophisticated smart grid attack threats cannot be effectively retrofitted. In this article, Green Hills Software Inc. outlines the need to design the smart grid for high robustness from the start.
In the recent years the semiconductor industry has made amazing progresses in delivering higher performance at lower power consumption. However, the gap between the energy need and availability not only persists, but is continuously widening. One way to address this dilemma is to design bigger or denser batteries for the phones, impacting cost or weight or both, but this is not enough to effectively close the energy gap. A smarter way is to multiply the sources of available energy and recharge the battery continuously.
A compatible charging infrastructure and communication between an EV and any potential “charging spot” is required for easy and practical use. The established Power Line Communication (PLC) standard in the Smart Power Grid offers a robust and long term available setup—and the prospect of grid stabilization (charging back to the grid).
A major challenge in automotive design is protecting electronics against damaging surges, voltage transients, ESD, and noise that are present on the power line.
Virtualization, a concept of the mainframe computing and business IT world, is no longer a technology restricted to large computing centers and business computing environments. Increasingly confronted with the requirement to communicate with business IT and to integrate complex processing environments, programmers and developers of embedded systems increasingly rely on virtualization techniques.
This article examines how to tame the three conflicting design goals facing the power control system of a modern mobile device.
It's less than a month now until ESC Silicon Valley 2011 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California and we are getting fired up about all the great hands-on educational opportunities. We are especially excited about the just-announced Beer and Boards training available for All Access pass holders! Pick one of the development kits to take home: • Texas Instruments CC2540DK-MINI Development Kit • XL_STAR complete MCU development environment • Avnet Spartan-6 LX9 MicroBoard
Then attend a gathering and meet with the board's designers, where you will learn about the kit and share a few beers. Development kit supplies are only available to All Access Pass Holders – so make sure you register now, quanitites are limited.
