The "free", open source, lib files for Arduino are great unless you have different hardware or want to do something differently. For example, the keypad lib is for a 3 X 3 keypad whereas I have a 4 X 4. To modify this, or any other open s...
On Tuesday (June 19, 2012) at Freescale Technology Forum (FTF) Americas, an impressive energy-efficiency killer demo was presented during the opening keynote. Showcased were the first MCUs built on the ARM®︎ Cortex™︎-M0+ processors: The brand new Frees...

By Jim Trudeau Sometimes real gems are hiding in plain sight. We are bombarded by data, and who knows what brilliant discoveries we miss in the cacophony of noise. A friend might point out something. “Hey, have you seen…” and c...
Here is a short video that explains the procedure for booting VxWorks OS on Stratix III Dev. Kit using MP32 IP core. The video does not have audio instructions. We are in the process of updating the video with audio instructions. Comin...
By Jim Trudeau Freescale covers a lot of territory horizontally – industrial, consumer, networking, medical … the list is long. Our technological breadth and depth is immense as a result. We’re famous for it. So what? You are always right to ask...
The traditional approach to picking silicon involves data sheets; matrices of features; at best, a complex spreadsheet of all the many parts with all the many options laid out. Let’s call this the “top down” approach. You have to already be somewhat...
Earlier this week a friend told us he was having hard times when installing his codewarrior on a brand new PC..."maybe he were doing something bad" you might think, but no...After a few tries (and failures), we start thinking this was related to some...
So back in November 2009 I posted an article about my starting to play around with RTOS to grow in my technical knowledge. I must confess something: I haven’t really played with MQX or others as much as I would have liked…at least not during 2010. Bu...
The title should not be a surprise here in the USB Community since SuperSpeed USB is now in the market. Still this is a news for developers working on this. Talking about SuperSpeed USB, the USB 3.0 standard claims that i...
Here is a sample application that we have created using the CoreCommander board for mass storage on Altera FPGA. The video given below does not have voice. You can read the comments and view the mass storage implementation.

The aim of this project is to control a Robotic Arm which is mounted on to the Traxster. Wii Nunchuck is used to control Robotic Arm and Traxster. We are just using the two buttons and the Joystick and this data is been transfers wireless...
Embedded software engineers only need to know one programming language to get through life: C. Most embedded software projects are written in C. So that leaves most other languages out of use (I insist, for embedded programmers). I ...
