How to Choose a Microcontroller: 5 Steps to Finding the Ideal Match

Electronics engineering is a rather tricky beast. No matter how similar it may be to something else you’ve worked on, each project is a little different from the last. And this means the individual parts you’ll use during development (especially microcontrollers!) will likely differ as well. Selecting the appropriate microcontroller for the job is easier […]

Programming HID Bootloader on PIC32

The bootloader facilitates program installation on the PIC32, eliminating the need for an external programmer such as an ICD2 and eliminating the requirement for computer drivers. The PC software necessary for the bootloader is pre-installed alongside the Microchip Applications Library. Software PIC Source Code To set up each new program, you’ll need to establish a

Design for manufacturing and assembly: DFA&DFM

Product developers understand the challenges involved in creating a market-ready product. Even experienced designers often go through multiple prototype iterations before reaching a mass-production version. Design for X The Design for X (DFX) methodology divides product design into various disciplines, such as Design for Sustainability, Design for Cost, Design for Testing, Design for Manufacture and
