From Concept to Programmable Logic Prototype in Minutes

by Max Maxfield

My poor old noggin is currently buzzing with ideas for things I could do with the new line of programmable devices that were recently introduced by the guys and gals at Texas Instruments. As usual, of course, in addition to these new devices themselves, myriad ancillary thoughts are currently cavorting around my cranium. Let’s start … Read More →

Have You Forgotten Anything?

by Max Maxfield

I just had an interesting video conference call. It started off as so many things do… with people laughing at me (I live for the day when people laugh *with* me rather than *at* me). First, there was the fact that my name invariably comes up as “Max the Magnificent” in conference applications like Zoom … Read More →

TinyML, NPUs and AI SDK: Ceva’s Guide to IoT innovation

by Amelia Dalton

My guest this week is Chad Lucien from Ceva! Chad and I talk all about the future of edge AI, the advantages of TinyML, and Ceva’s NeuPro NPUs. Chad and I also discuss about the motivation to behind the creation of Ceva’s new NeuPro-Nano NPU, the details of the architecture of this new NPU family, … Read More →

Who Invented the Johnson Decade Counter (and Why)?

by Max Maxfield

I love digital logic. I love solving digital logic conundrums. And I especially love discovering interesting and unusual ways of doing things while also learning more about the people who came up with these ideas in the first place. Take Gray codes, for example. These were named after Frank Gray, who was a physicist and … Read More →

My AI Will Be Watching You (Part 2)

by Max Maxfield

“Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so,” as Ford Prefect said to Authur Dent in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I’d like to say I know what he meant, but it’s been a long time since I managed to make the time to have lunch (or breakfast, now I come to think about it). … Read More →

My AI Will Soon Be Watching You (Part 1)

by Max Maxfield

Time is a funny old thing. On the one hand, we don’t even know what it is. On the other hand, we never seem to have enough of it. I remember being a kid with several days remaining until Christmas. The second hand on the clock seemed to barely move, desperately straining to make its … Read More →

ST rolls a new FD-SOI microcontroller with phase-change memory (PCM) for automotive applications

by Steven Leibson

Like a battered and bruised prizefighter, phase-change memory (PCM) refuses to stay down or give up the fight. Although it got a black eye and bloody nose from its Micron 3D XPoint and Intel Optane misadventures, PCM has found its way into microcontrollers, thanks to a collaboration between STMicroelectronics (ST) and Samsung. Back in 2018, … Read More →

Affordable Rack-Mount Quantum Computers Are Here!

by Max Maxfield

As I may have mentioned on occasion, when it comes to quantum computing, one of my favorite quotes comes from the Night Watch tome of Terry Pratchett Discworld series. The quote in question reads as follows: “It’s very hard to talk quantum using a language originally designed to tell other monkeys where the ripe fruit … Read More →

Thin-Film Piezoelectric MEMS: A New Day for Exciting MEMS Applications
