Communication protocols at Layers 3 (network) and 4 (transport) in the Open Systems Interconnect protocol stack have been getting help from silicon and firmware since the days of asynchronous transfer ...

Eliminating one of the most complex portions of a networked design, FieldServer Technologies recently announced a quick and easy method of adding serial and Ethernet protocols to embedded controllers.

Check out LIN and I2C for low speed networking needs. They are often better alternatives than SPI or CAN for many applications. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) and universal asynchronous ...

The “Internet of things” is about connecting products that create, store, and consume data via the Internet. This allows processing to provide results that people ...

In the world of embedded systems, the language debate is alive and well. For years, C has dominated this space, its minimalistic design and low-level control giving embedded engineers the tools to ...

AES is one of the most widely used cryptographic algorithms in embedded systems today. It protects industrial gateways, FPGA-based communication systems, automotive networks, VPNs, secure boot chains, ...

LIPS can be easily integrated into new or existing designs with a LAVA IP System Engine (LIPE) module, chip, or board. The LIPE hardware manages all the Internet communication for a potential device ...

Developers writing embedded Java applications have a stack of frameworks and other tools to choose from. Here are the best Java frameworks used for embedded development today. Java’s creators had a ...
