The rapid adoption of high-speed serial interconnect in recent years have posed new challenges to design engineers. Many embedded systems engineers are facing designs with PCIe and Serial Rapid I/O, ...

With the TPI4000 protocol analyzer from Tektronix, you can analyze,stimulate, stress, and characterize high-speed serial links at speeds of up to10 Gbps. This single instrument, along with its ...

It’s the easiest thing in the world — simple, straightforward serial data. It’s the fallback communication protocol for nearly every embedded system out there, and so it’s one that you really want to ...

Today’s high-end field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) with embedded transceivers support a variety of widely accepted serial protocol standards, including Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, XAUI and ...

If you’ve been involved with electronics and hardware hacking for awhile, there’s an excellent chance you’ve heard of the Bus Pirate. First introduced on the pages of Hackaday back in 2008 by creator ...

Here is a collection of content on the various serial I/O protocols and the interfaces for converting parallel 8-16-32-bit I/O into a more compact 1-2 bit serial form used in embedded systems design.

After a short delay required to obtain a CE mark, Tektronix' TPI4000 protocol analyser is now available in Europe following its launch elsewhere earlier this year. The test platform is said to allow ...

SoC booting involves initial set of operations that needs to be performed once the SoC comes out of reset. It involves the initializing of SoC resources like memory configuration, clock settings etc ...

Sending and receiving data over a given distance has grown from a passion in humans to a necessity. In 1810, a German man created a system for sending encoded messages via air bubbles. He crafted a ...

“Not being overcomplicated is Modbus TCP/IP’s biggest draw, not only for PLCs, but especially for PC-based applications,” said Jason Haldeman, senior product specialist for I/O and networking at ...
