Hi everyone,
At VIA Embedded we had a pretty good year for our ARM projects, and thought I share with you our highlights for 2015.
This year we…
The most advanced System on Chip in the world is only so much inert silicon without the printed circuit board that supplies it with power, connects its interfaces and otherwise gives it a home where it can do its job. Vendors of Embedded Computing Board…
One of the fun parts of our Exploring the world of ARM based Embedded Computing Boards (ECB) project has been hearing about all the creative ways that embedded computing boards are being used in non traditional ways. A great example of this is in high…
As I immersed myself in the world of Embedded Computing Boards it quickly became clear that the early days of the market were driven by Aerospace applications so it made sense to talk to Curtiss-Wright who is legendary in this market. Legendary you say…
VIA Embedded has so far two Freescale i.MX6Q based products, the VAB-820 board and the matching AMOS-820 system. We have started to move from LTIB-based BSP images to Yocto recently for multiple reasons.
The first, very practical one is that Freescale…
PHYTEC is a German company which has been producing system on module boards (SOMs) for over 25 years so I connected with Yves Astein, a product manager at PHYTEC to get his take on the rise of ARM based SOMs and embedded computing boards. 
Yves told me…
Anyone taking a serious look at the embedded market really has to speak to Freescale because the whole market came about because Motorola (Freescale’s former parent) was so successful with the 68000 architecture in embedded computing boards. The good…
Although the theme of EW was Internet of Things, there was so much to see at Embedded World (EW). I was impressed with the breadth of embedded computing technologies. If you are interested in my morning EW adventures, please check out …
Hello ARM community!
This one is my very first blog post in here and I want to share a project I have been working on: a weather station/datalogger reading temperature, humidity and light levels from the surroundings and saving it all inside a microSD…
The batteryless energy harvesting remote control was a project undertaken to demonstrate the low power of the ARM Cortex-M0+ processor. We wanted to create an extremely low power remote control that was compatible with the vast majority of…
