This article explains the importance of LINT and CDC in VLSI design and verification. LINT is a process that checks the quality of the HDL code, while CDC is a process that verifies the signals crossing different clock domains. Both LINT and CDC aim to ensure robust design and prevent errors or failures in semiconductor devices.

In the world of Internet of Things (IoT), Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) has become an

There are typically several sleep modes available in microcontrollers to optimize power consumption. The exact

As more people start using electric cars (EVs) and more places have charging stations for these cars, it’s important to keep the software in these charging stations updated. This software, called firmware, is like the brains of the charging station. Updating it regularly helps the charging station work better, be more reliable, and stay compatible with new technologies. In this article, we’ll explore the process of implementing firmware update requests in Charge Station Management Systems (CSMS) using OCPP 1.6, a standard protocol for managing electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

Universal Serial Bus popularly known as USB is a Plug and Play interface used for computers to communicate with diverse types of USB peripherals. Keyboards, Mouses, Joysticks, Speakers, Webcams, External Drives are common USB devices. The underlying mechanisms for each of these devices are different. Some of them are mass storage devices, video devices, audio devices while others are human interface devices. UVC stands for USB Video Class and can transmit video over USB, similarly UAC stands for USB Audio Class and can transmit audio over USB. When user plugs a UVC/UAC device to the host, configuration, and enumeration of UVC/UAC device at host will be completed and its capabilities advertised to the host. USB Camera and USB Headset is an example of UVC and UAC Device, respectively.

The Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP) is a critical cybersecurity concept that limits user and system access rights to the minimum necessary. On the Internet of Things (IoT) landscape and within organizations, implementing PoLP through role-based access control, network segmentation, and regular audits can significantly reduce security risks, mitigate potential damage, and enhance overall security posture.

NVIDIA Drive OS is a sophisticated operating system designed to unlock the full potential of autonomous vehicles. By enabling real-time processing, deep learning integration, and a scalable architecture – Drive OS provides a robust foundation for developers to build safe, intelligent self-driving solutions across industries.

Cache coherence maintains consistency between cached data copies when multiple devices access shared memory. This blog explores the need for cache coherency, coherence protocols like snooping, and fixing incoherence issues in multicore systems like ensuring descriptor writebacks for proper DMA transfers with EMAC.

Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) are the future of smart and safe driving. These ingenious technologies employ cameras, radars, sensors and software to help drivers by automatically detecting hazards and even taking control of the vehicle when required. From adaptive cruise control to auto parking systems, ADAS aims to prevent accidents caused by human errors, which lead to over 90% of crashes today.
