Although the ability to expand a home computer with more RAM, storage and other features has been around for as long as home computers exist, it wasn’t until the IBM PC that the concept of a fully ...

Today's embedded applications target the PC architecture that users have accepted beyond anyone's wildest dreams for both business and personal use. This is a wide-open target, supported by a vast ...

ARC International has developed an instruction set architecture (ISA) that allows mixing of 16 and 32-bit instructions on its 32-bit user-configurable processor. This could cut memory requirements on ...

ARM9T Core The ARM9T family defines a set of RISC cores that are optimized to minimize cost and power dissipation. The family builds around the ARM9 Thumb architecture, a full ARM ISA also capable of ...

Hey all, just had a couple quick questions. First off, what is the formula for calculating memory bandwidth? I seem to remember learning this once...Secondly: What is the difference between a 16, 32, ...

Making a microcontroller speak to a VGA monitor has been a consistent project in our sphere for years, doing the job for which an IBM PC of yore required a plug-in ISA card. Couldn’t a microcontroller ...
