Foundries.io discusses the growth of Linux and security in the industrial robotics automation and infrastructure space, as well as the demand for MCU customers moving to an MPU space, where they require a heavier operating system like Linux. Foundry delivers the easy solution for Yocto, easy solution for security, which allows OEMs to productize their devices 6-9 months quicker with much more security. Foundries enable the cycle to be shortened by using the same code base from day one. They are probably the only platform that goes from bootloader through to Docker container and OTA, allowing OEMs to be very flexible with the SOC to be very flexible with their cloud. Foundries is SOC-independent, but they add all the latest security from all the latest offenders. This is almost unique in the industry and potentially IoT devices will be updated forever. In the video, they have demos at the booth to illustrate what they have shown at Embedded World 2023 in Nuremberg Germany

Posted by – March 29, 2023
Category: Exclusive videos

Shreyas Derashri, Vice President of Compute at Imagination, talks about the company’s compute products, which include their RISC-V CPUs, AI technology, and GPU compute products with associated software. The company has their own neural network accelerators and supports AI technology through GPUs. The video showcases the company’s first RISC-V CPU product running on an FPGA, which is an embedded CPU for real-time applications that can also be used for networking type of use cases and insecure Enclave implementation in a larger SOC. Imagination is also showcasing various partner demos with their GPUs, including an automotive partner demo with Teletubbies and one with telechips, showcasing a full large cockpit display. Imagination is partnering with other RISC-V companies with their GPU, including a Star 5 board and an Alibaba ST head RISC-V CPU with Imagination GPU. Imagination is the only GPU provider for Star 5, which they claim is the GPU of choice for the RISC-V architecture. The video also highlights Imagination’s experience in making Android products and how their GPUs are CPU-agnostic. Imagination is currently developing products that are not yet on the market, but their single board computer is available for developers to play with. The RISC-V architecture is disrupting the status quo, and Imagination is seeing more interest in RISC-V designs. The video discusses how easy it is to port over applications to this platform compared to previous platforms since Imagination GPUs for graphics use cases support APIs like OpenGL and OpenGLES.

Collabora latest upstream contributions to Chromebooks, Arm Linux at Embedded World 2023 #ew23

Posted by – March 29, 2023
Category: Exclusive videos

Collabora showcases a MediaTek-based Chromebook at Embedded World 2023 in Nuremberg Germany that their team has contributed to. They have done a lot of work to bring upstream Linux support for various IP blocks found in ARM. They have also worked on the codec hardware and upstreamed other bits of hardware to the Linux kernel. They have collaborated with Google on having these devices in the kernel CI project, which is a project for continuous integration on the Linux kernel itself. This work is useful for people who want to run Linux on these devices. They shows a demo of their lab and how they have continuous integration across all the boards. They use LAVA (Linaro Automated Validation Architecture) to host their lab and can put both devices there to be part of both kernel CIA and Mesa CI. They show a machine learning demo that runs on a complete open-source deck OS, focusing on video compression for web video conferencing. They use an open-source graphics driver, and the demo reduces bandwidth up to 10 times compared to H264. This demo is more of a prototype than a full-featured product, but it could be integrated into existing video conferencing software like Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

Nordic Semiconductor nRF7002 companion WiFi chipset at Embedded World 2023 #ew23

Posted by – March 29, 2023
Category: Exclusive videos

Nordic Semiconductor shows their newest Wi-Fi companion chipset, the nRF7002, which has been out for a couple of months. Nordic specializes in low-power wireless devices and with the Wi-Fi 6 capabilities, the nRF7002 is their lowest power Wi-Fi solution ever. The nRF7002 does not have its own controller and is mostly used next to their multi-protocol socs to add Wi-Fi capabilities to existing products. The video demonstrates the power-saving feature of Target Wake Time, which allows negotiation of a wake-up schedule with the access point, resulting in a lower power consumption of 80 microamps compared to the normal power-saving mode, which averages around 32 milliamps. Nordic’s nRF7002 is potentially the lowest power Wi-Fi solution ever and is of great interest to the embedded world. The video also showcases the nRF7002 in a fan-style module with integrated Wi-Fi, zigbee, thread, and NFC capabilities. (chatgpt generated paragraph based on auto subtitle)

The nRF7002 is a companion IC, providing seamless Wi-Fi connectivity and Wi-Fi-based locationing (SSID sniffing of local Wi-Fi hubs). It is designed to be used alongside Nordic’s existing nRF52® and nRF53® Series Bluetooth Systems-on-Chip (SoCs), and nRF91® Series cellular IoT Systems-in-Package (SiPs). The nRF7002 can also be used in conjunction with non-Nordic host devices.

The nRF7002 is the first device in our portfolio of unique Wi-Fi products that will combine seamlessly with Nordic’s existing ultra-low power technologies. Nordic brings their decades of ultra-low-power wireless IoT and silicon design expertise to Wi-Fi. With Wi-Fi 6 we bring added benefits to IoT applications including further efficiency gains that support long-life, battery-powered Wi-Fi operation.

With Wi-Fi 6 we will support all wireless protocols used in Matter, Bluetooth LE for commissioning, Thread for low power mesh, and Wi-Fi for high-throughput. Matter is a protocol championed by Apple, Amazon, Google, Nordic Semiconductor, Samsung, and hundreds of other companies in consumer IoT.

Murata Booth Tour at Embedded World 2023 #ew23 Next Generation IoT Hardware

Posted by – March 27, 2023
Category: Exclusive videos

Murata introduced its latest engineering innovations and connectivity modules, exploring new opportunities in wireless communication, at Embedded World 2023, Nuremberg. Featuring the company’s proprietary expertise, the new LBES5PL2EL module is highly optimized to meet the exacting demands of next generation IoT hardware – where having Matter connectivity is set to become an increasingly important expectation. This module is based on a highly-integrated IW612 single-chip 2.4/5GHz solution from NXP, which covers a broad array of different wireless protocols. Through this, 1×1 dual-band Wi-FiTM (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax), Bluetooth® 5.3 and IEEE 802.15.4 are all incorporated into the Murata tri-radio module.

The inclusion of LE Audio functionality is another important plus point, especially in relation to voice-controlled products. This latest generation of Bluetooth technology delivers heightened performance, while drawing less power, and is predicted to replace many of the current BR/EDR Bluetooth-based audio connections in the near future. Also being made available is the LBEE5PL2DL module. This is based on the NXP IW611 device and features both Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3 support.

Among the intended applications for these newly announced modules will be home automation equipment, digital assistants, smart domestic appliances, lighting gateways, climate control systems and EV charging points. FCC/IC and TELEC certification plus conductive tests for CE are all available, thereby helping customers using these modules to accelerate their time to market and keep product development costs down. The Murata LBES5PL2EL and LBEE5PL2DL wireless combo modules are each supplied in compact surface-mount packages, with dimensions of just 8.8mm x 7.7mm x 1.3mm.

“There are still only a few Matter-compliant solutions on the market, yet the potential for it to deliver convenience and comfort to the places in which we live is huge,” states Akira Sasaki, Director of the Communication Module Division at Murata. “Thanks to the introduction of the LBES5PL2EL, we are now able to provide full support for Matter, including Thread, alongside Wi-Fi 6. This will be a real value to engineers developing hardware for home/building automation, as well as for numerous other purposes.”
