SPI has earned a solid role in embedded systems whether it is system on chip processors, both with higher end 32-bit processors such as those using ARM, MIC or Power PC and with other microcontrollers ...

The SPI Flash Interface is yet another application of the Serial Peripheral Interface protocol, which has been around almost as long as I have been covering electronics. SPI is a name Motorola gave to ...

DCD-SEMI, a leading IP core provider and SoC design house based in Poland, has mastered a unique DeSPI IP Core. It is a fully configurable enhanced serial peripheral interface (eSPI) master/slave ...

This morning the Open Source Hardware Association (OSHWA) announced a resolution for changing the way SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) pins are labelled on hardware and in datasheets. The protocol ...

Electronics is everywhere, especially these days. Many times, as frequent users, we do not even notice a “paradigm change” in the things we use on regular basis. We use a fridge, but we do not care ...

Microchip Technology introduced the SST26VF, a new family of 3V Serial Quad I/O™ interface (or SQI™ interface) SuperFlash® memory devices. This three-member “26 Series” SQI interface family is ...

We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

Modern embedded systems are becoming increasingly compact, power efficient, and feature rich. As SoCs integrate more functionality, developers need reliable debug access without increasing pin count ...

Embedded World, Nuremberg, Germany: Using the recent Embedded World show as its platform, Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) launched the FT232H USB2.0 Hi-Speed device. The single-channel ...
