Let's focus on setting up a Git repository tailored to the unique requirements of Yocto projects. By following these custom guidelines, you'll streamline your development process, enhance collaboration, and ensure the integrity of your Yocto build. * Choose the Right Repository Structure ** Layer-Based Approach ** Separate Repositories for Custom Layers ** Configuration Files ** […]
Everyone everywhere is investigating ways they can use AI to increase efficiency, improve productivity, and open new revenue streams or cost savings. Electronics engineering is no exception, where the application of AI and machine learning is already being investigated in use cases like VLSI (well, maybe that's EDA), board layout, and more. But where else […]
Join the DevHeads weekly community meetup, Office Hours, where we get together to discuss: * Topics of interest to the technology engineering community * Collaborate to solve common and uncommon problems * Share real-world case studies and resources * And more The format is always the same but the discussion focus always changes, so login, […]
Embedded systems developers are all too familiar with the SPI interface. Are you? Join us for this week's Engineering Hour where tenured embedded and IoT developer Umesh Lokhande walks us through SPI driver development with an overview of: - SPI Protocol - Frame Format - Clock Polarity (CPOL) and Clock Phase (CPHA) - Connecting MCU […]
Let's dive into the concept of Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) and their significance in Yocto projects. Understanding SBOMs is essential for ensuring transparency, security, and compliance in embedded Linux development. * What is a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM)? ** A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is a detailed inventory of all software components […]
Over the past several weeks we’ve laid the groundwork for what you need to get started developing with Yocto. During these sessions, we’ve learned how to distinguish between Yocto, Poky, and OpenEmbedded to harness the full power of Yocto in building robust, custom embedded Linux distributions. We’ve established a solid foundation for managing, collaborating and […]
Can't decide which RTOS to build your real-time application on? We may have an answer for you. Learn how concepts we've addressed to date can be applied in an RTOS context as we introduce the Arm CMSIS RTOS. Join this REHEAT of our recent Engineering Hour session with Edison Ngunjiri on multi-tasking with Version 3 […]
In a recent Office Hours session the DevHeads discussed how you determine whether you need an RTOS and introduced key concepts to help you get started. Now, it's time to apply that knowledge. In this Engineering Hour, embedded software engineer Zacck Osiemo gives us a refresher on FreeRTOS by configuring an industrial-class signal processing application. […]

Mixed signal means feedback systems. How do we handle this in an RTOS-based system and what tools are at our disposal? In this Engineering Hour session, professional developer Zacck Osiemo takes us on the journey of implementing a control system on FreeRTOS with a step-by-step demonstration so you can do it, too. Join us on […]
You’re an IoT developer. How many solutions have you worked on that have succeeded? How many have flopped? Do you know how to tell the difference between the two? In this week’s Office Hours session we explore technical factors limiting IoT solution sales and deployment: * How can the choice of connectivity make or break […]
Signal Processing. Control. What's next in 2024 but to layer on AI? The last two Engineering Hour sessions have seen embedded software developer Zacck Osiemo walk us through building an industrial-grade signal processing application on FreeRTOS and then configuring it for a control system. Now that we have a stable product, it's time to enhance […]
