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 ...

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

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

In our last session we looked at the basic structure and operation of a microcontroller (MCU). Now let’s look at some of the hardware (peripheral circuitry) required to support the microprocessor. In ...

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

The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is an upgraded version of the original Pico microcontroller, featuring enhanced performance, increased memory, improved power efficiency, and new security features. It retains ...

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 ...
