I2C Single Master: peripheral or bit banging?
I hate I2C for several reasons. It's only two-wires bus, but for this reason it is insidious. I usually use hw peripherals when they are available, because it's much more efficient and smart and...

Simulator for embedded systems
Usually I can build my projects for embedded platforms for target board and for mingw compiler under Windows. Of course I simulate hw peripherals (UART, LEDs, and so on) in some way. I usually have a...

Adding the new "USB CUSTOM CLASS" template to CubeMX for STM32?
When preparing nonstandard USB firmwares for STM32 microcontrollers, it would be perfect to have a possibility to use a "CUSTOM CLASS", in "Class for FS IP" list in CubeMX. Unfortunately it is not...
 
Testing watchdog
I usually enable watchdog during boot init code. I usually use the internal watchdog that is available in the MCU I'm using. I know an external watchdog can be more secure, but internal watchdog is...

What is a Processor in Context of Reliability Analysis
How is a "processor" defined when considering requirements on developing a design? A project I am on is shoving software into HDL to design an FPGA w hich is being considered "hardware". I'm not...
 
USB HID mouse data packet
It's a while since I last looked at USB but I'm finding it difficult to source useful material to explain the data packet I get from a USB mouse. I have 3 mice I'm looking at for reference and to...

Some preliminary help for an FPGA selection
It will be the first FPGA for me. What I want to do is not complex, I have done similar controllers (more complex really)numerous times using logic parts, PLD, CPLD-s etc. I need to put together a...
