Introduction In the embedded world, the question is no longer which OS should I use, but how can I make them work together? Modern SoCs are blurring the line between real-time microcontrollers and application processors. Chips like the STM32MP2 from STMicroelectronics integrate both a Cortex-A35, capable of running a full Linux distribution, and a Cortex-M33, […]

Accelerating early Linux boot with Yocto multiconfig By Paul Le Guen de Kerneizon Introduction In embedded products, cutting seconds, or even hundreds of milliseconds, from power‑on to application readiness is often critical. In this article, I will present a practical workflow to measure, compare, and iteratively reduce the early boot window of a Linux embedded […]

In today’s world, where everything from coffee machines to industrial equipment is connected to the network, knowing and assessing the security of your software and its dependencies has never been more important. Most vulnerabilities originate from small bugs in software components, and more recently (and thankfully less frequently) from sophisticated supply chain attacks. But with […]

Author : Luc Beaufils, Embedded Systems Engineer   Debugging MCUs has always been the key to producing high-quality code, but reliance on vendor-specific IDEs and complex debug server configurations can hinder a smooth development workflow. While VSCode has revolutionized the way developers write and debug code, setting up a debug session for MCUs can sometimes […]
