When designing IP for system-on-chip (SoC) and application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) implementations, IP designers strive for perfection. Optimal engineering often yields the smallest die ...

This article discusses how to use GCJ, part of the GCC compiler suite, in an embedded Linux project. Like all tools, GCJ has benefits, namely the ability to code in a high-level language like Java, ...

GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection, is a tool used by nearly every embedded engineer, even those who don't target Linux. In release since 1987, supporting every processor known to man, GCC is a ...

System-on-chip (SoC) architectures are being increasingly employedto solve a diverse spectrum of problems in the embedded and mobilesystems domain. The resulting increase in the complexity ...

The ongoing collaborative efforts between Samsung and handset processor maker ARM have now tested the industry’s first Embedded MRAM (eMRAM) compiler IP and at least three new physical processor IPs.

Ask most embedded developers why they're still writing firmware in C, and you'll hear the same answer: "C++ is too heavy for embedded." That concern has merit. It's also more than 20 years out of date ...
