COM-HPC is a computer-on-module standard for high-performance embedded computing, following on from COM Express 3.0. PICMG COM-HPC technical subcommittee chairman Christian Eder, also marketing manager at Congatec, and MD of embedded computing firm Recab UK Martin Frederiksen have put together a Q&A to explain further. What are the main differences between COM-HPC and COM Express? Eder: Computer-on-modules based on the ...
Cliff Ortmeyer, Global Head of Technical Marketing at Farnell, considers the use of cloud Services as a way to provide long-term security and protect the network. Internet connectivity provides the means to add huge value to embedded systems, yet that same connectivity can be a threat to the integrity of devices and the IoT applications that are being built using them. By ...
Wireless Gecko SoC families from Silicon Labs available from Mouser Electronics now include the EFR32BG22 (BG22), EFR32MG22 (MG22) and EFR32FG22 (FG22) SoCs. The new SoCs are highly energy efficient, delivering exceptional battery life for a range of Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

UltraSoC and Agile Analog have teamed-up to deliver hardware-based security against ‘analogue interference’ attacks such as power supply or clock signal tampering. The aim is to combining UltraSoC’s embedded on-chip analytics with Agile Analog’s on-chip analogue monitoring IP. As well as voltage and clock glitching, these side-channel attacks can also include deliberate brown-outs and temperature variations, all to gain access to ...
Synopsys has announced DesignWare ARC HS5x and HS6x processor IP families for high-performance embedded applications. The 32-bit ARC HS5x and 64-bit HS6x processors, available in single-core and multicore versions, are implementations of a new superscalar ARCv3 Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) and deliver up to 8750 DMIPS per core in 16-nm process technologies under typical conditions, making them the highest performance ARC processors ...
System images for Android 11 provide emulated ARM support with significantly improved performance.
The Embedded World 2020 show is over now, but check out these images below captured from the show floor in Nuremberg.
At Embedded World 2020, the group editor of Electronics Weekly, Clive Couldwell, shares his thoughts and observations on the show so far. Attendance may be down, he notes, but that gives the show space to breathe and actually increases the opportunities for interesting discussions with engineers. A chance to look at what you may not normally see. Read all our ...
