AJIT – First-Ever “Made in India” Microprocessor Designed By IIT Bombay


https://www.electronics-lab.com/ajit-first-ever-made-india-microprocessor-designed-iit-bombay/

In this modern era, the electronics industry is incomplete without microprocessors. From daily household appliances to space exploration – microprocessors are accompanying us everywhere and making lives way easier. But, independently designing and manufacturing a processor is an extremely complicated task and done by only a few countries like the US, Italy, France, Japan, Taiwan, […]

Fabio Bergamin @ phys.org writes about PULPino which is an open source processor to be used on wearables and IoT. In future, it will be easier and cheaper for developers at universities and SMEs to build wearable microelectronic devices and chips for the internet of things, thanks to the PULPino open-source processor, which has been developed at […]

Inside the ALU of the first ARM microprocessor


https://www.electronics-lab.com/inside-the-alu-of-the-first-arm-microprocessor/

Dave @ daveshacks.blogspot.co.uk takes a look inside the first ARM microprocessor and explains it’s design. With that in mind I embarked on my own attempt to reverse-engineer parts of the armv1. Some background knowledge of the processor’s architecture is helpful, and googling for “ARM Architecture Reference Manual” will lead you to very detailed descriptions of […]

2 New Families from Microchip


https://www.electronics-lab.com/2-new-families-from-microchip/

by elektormagazine.com: Microchip has introduced two new 8-bit MCU families with integrated Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs). You may be thinking that 8-bit processors are unlikely to cut the mustard for many of today’s applications but built-in interconnected CIPs combine to perform functions autonomously, without intervention from the processor. This makes these new 8-bit families suitable […]
