A recent EDN article dealt with a number of programming tips for embedded microcontrollers. One of those tips, using state machines, is a programming approach that is especially useful, yet probably ...

Picat is a new logic-based programming language. In many ways, Picat is similar to Prolog, especially B-Prolog, but it has functions in addition to predicates, pattern-matching instead of unification ...

Capturing data signals during embedded system design can prove challenging. Modern logic analyzers make data acquisition tasks easier by providing advanced triggering capabilities that get to the root ...

When developing code to operate a real-time clock (RTC), it is often beneficial to understand how the clock core operating logic has been defined. This tutorial discusses the counter-chain structure ...
