Real World ATCA and SWAP-C, a Revolution in Gaming, and Bathtub Drones

Traditional Concepts in Embedded System Design Taken to the Next Level
by Amelia Dalton

Welcome my electronic engineering compatriots! We’ve got quite a line up for you this week. First up, Rob Persons (Artesyn Embedded Technologies) joins us to discuss the details of a real world AdvancedTCA application that utilizes SWAP-C called DASCAN (Dynamically Adaptive Secure Computing Area Network) and how AdvancedTCA applications compare with more traditional server-based applications in battlefield environments. We also discuss how Artesyn has collaborated with Gamestream and Intel to create a cloud-based platform for a brand new video game streaming service. In a special segment of News You May Have Missed, we check out how a couple intrepid engineers from Germany are flippin’ the script on drone technology as we know it.

Demo: Inuitive NU4000 SoC with ARC EV Processor Running SLAM and CNN

Sponsored by Synopsys

Autonomous vehicles, robotics, augmented and virtual reality all require simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) to build a map of the surroundings. Combining SLAM with a neural network engine adds intelligence, allowing the system to identify objects and make decisions. In this demo, Synopsys ARC EV processor’s vision engine (VPU) accelerates KudanSLAM algorithms by up to 40% while running object detection on its CNN engine.

The Cryptography Handbook

Sponsored by Maxim Integrated

The Cryptography Handbook is designed to be a quick study guide for a product development engineer, taking an engineering rather than theoretical approach. In this series, we start with a general overview and then define the characteristics of a secure cryptographic system. We then describe various cryptographic concepts and provide an implementation-centric explanation of physically unclonable function (PUF) technology. We hope that this approach will give the busy engineer a quick understanding of the basic concepts of cryptography and provide a relatively fast way to integrate security in his/her design.

Power Supply Design

Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and KEMET

There is a bewildering range of choices for components for power supply design. Considering EMI protection, surge protection, transformers, rectifiers - the list goes on and on. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Nick Stephen of KEMET to sort out the puzzle of power supply component selection, and to look at the latest trends and best practices in power supply design.
