Onomondo is a company that’s headquartered in Copenhagen Denmark, they have pioneered a SIM solution for IoT devices that are expected to cross international borders (think freight containers and high value parcels). Here is a comprehensive article that discusses in detail how Onomondo’s solution is being used in the manufacturing industry. https://onomondo.com/blog/iot-in-manufacturing-how-iot-is-transforming-the-manufacturing-industry/

The ESP32-P4 has been announced by Espressive Systems with a RISC-V core and AI instructions. Powered by a dual-core RISC-V CPU running up to 400MHz, ESP32-P4 also supports single-precision FPU and AI extensions, thus providing all the necessary computational resources. In addition, ESP32-P4 integrates an LP-Core which can run up to 40MHz. This “big-little” architecture…

If you are looking for a super cheap replacement for something that lies between an ATTiny and an Arduino Mini, and costs around the same as the ATTiny; you should have a look as the CH55X based boards available these days. I was able to get a handful from AliExpress for $1.31 each. The CH552…

This is a starting guide for the impatient, gets you off the ground using your trusty G540 programmer in no time. This guide doesn’t assume you know how to write WinCUPL code, hence example code for a scenario is provided.

Raspberry PI silicon RP2040 has entered the embedded market with a bang, where millions of units have been sold and tens of millions are on the way. It was felt that it lacked connectivity, and Raspberry PI team have listened to the community. We now have a new version rolling out which brings effortless WiFi…

When one ventures out of the 8-bit processor universe, memory alignment is something that is expected to be taken care of for various reasons explained in the below article. Generating Aligned Memory

https://iotechprojects.com/sending-data-from-the-esp8266-to-mysql-directly/ Usually, we use some sort of queuing mechanism to connect two devices or processes where the reliability/availability of either end isn’t guaranteed. However, if you have a reliable connection between two devices, the queues can be skipped. The above article does exactly that. It explains how an esp8266 based board can connect to a…

I remember looking at the Intel MCS-96 datasheets in the 1990s and admiring the fact that the more expensive 16-bit controller family had the HSO/HSI (High speed output/input) capability.
