Amber Vanderburg discusses how engineering leaders can spot and fix the “silent bugs” in team dynamics before they turn into bigger delivery problems.

Embedded systems can contain many different types of devices including microcontrollers, microprocessors, DSPs, RAM, EPROMs, FPGAs, A/Ds, and D/As. These various devices must communicate with each ...

Part one introduces the hardware used for debugging, the debugging challenges facing DSP programmers, and debugging methodologies.Part three explains how emulators control programs on the DSP through ...

Debugging microcontrollers is both a technical and creative challenge, bridging code analysis with hardware checks. Whether working with Arduino boards, PICkit 3 programmers, or ESP32-powered projects ...

Scan is a structured test approach in which the overall function of an integrated circuit (IC) is broken into smaller structures and tested individually. Every state element (D flip-flop or latch) is ...

Logic is the backbone of programming, helping you make decisions, control program flow, and solve problems effectively. From Boolean algebra to control structures and logic programming, mastering ...

Complex system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs with multiple embedded processors and IP blocks present difficult debug challenges. First Silicon Solutions' (FS2) Multi-Core Embedded Debug (MED) system extends ...

[Robert Morrison] had an ancient HP 545A logic probe, which was great for debugging SMT projects. The only problem was that being 45 years old, it wasn’t quite up to scratch when it came to debugging ...
