Digital signal controllers (DSCs) offer the most advanced form of single-chip control processing available for high-end embedded systems. DSCs with floating-point architecture take fewer processing ...

Micromega Corporation releases the uM-FPU V3 Floating Point Coprocessor chip. The uM-FPU V3 chip interfaces to virtually any microcontroller using a SPI interface or I2C interface, making it ideal for ...

An unfortunate reality of trying to represent continuous real numbers in a fixed space (e.g. with a limited number of bits) is that this comes with an inevitable loss of both precision and accuracy.

Older CPUs and some fairly modern microcontrollers are not made to readily support C compilers. Among those are the 1802, some 8-bit PICs, and the 6502 at the heart of the Commodore 64. That’s not to ...
