Gideon Intrater, CTO of Adesto, talks about how to use microcontrollers for applications where more memory is required, such as automotive, communication, and AI at the edge. Options include moving ...

Macronix International, a leading integrated device manufacturer in the non-volatile memory (NVM) market, announced that STMicroelectronics (ST) is using Macronix OctaBus flash memory for several ...

The type of memory a designer selects for an embedded project drives overall system operation and performance, so obviously this is a very important decision. Whether the system runs on batteries or ...

The use of RFID and contactless smart card technology is exploding and devices (e.g. tags, tokens, cards) all require embedded memory arrays that suit the needs of the application. All of these ...

Over on YouTube [Electronic Wizard] explains how to use the AT24C32 EEPROM for external memory for microcontrollers. He begins by explaining that you don’t want to ...

According to Infineon, its next-generation Aurix microcontroller will use embedded non-volatile memory, specifically resistive random access memory (RRAM), instead of embedded flash (eFlash), and it ...

Texas Instruments’ (TI) latest MSP430 microcontrollers utilize FRAM for code and data. The unified memory approach simplifies development since code space can be traded off for more data RAM. FRAM ...

Many now speculate that NAND Flash will make NOR obsolete. I think NOR will flourish for several more years, but, you never know what advances are just around the corner in either camp. One key factor ...

Most applications that require a microcontroller also require somemechanism to store settings that will be remembered even when power isremoved. For example, a radio that forgets its station presets ...

At some point when developing embedded applications, you’re going to want to store unique values in non-volatile memory, values that can’t be fixed at compilation time. Many microcontrollers have a ...
