Requirements Working in teams of two, read through the following lab activity and perform all the actions prescribed. You do not need to document bullet items. Make a record of your response to numbered items and turn them in a single copy as your teams solution on Canvas using the instructions posted there. Include the […]
In this lab we are going to use MPLAB® X IDE and its associate XC32 compiler to write and debug a PIC32 assembler program. The MPLAB X software is NetBeans based and will run under Linux, Mac and Windows. You can download your own copy of MPLAB X from Microchip’s MPLAB X download page. You will want a copy
Description The goal of the PIC18C project is to design, develop a synthesizible VHDL model, verify it using test programs, and implement a core of the Microchip PIC18C microcontroller. The microcontroller core is fully compatibile with the PIC18 series allowing program development using high-level programming languages such as C. The project phases are described below.

In 1975, Intel founder Gordon Moore predicted that the number of transistors on a single microchip would double every two years. He was right: silicon wafers that in the 1970s held just a few thousand transistors now routinely contain tens of billions of components. That makes chip design an extraordinarily complex and costly process, with

A research team at the NYU Center for Cyber Security (CCS) at NYU Tandon are participating in a major initiative in collaboration with data security company Duality — supported by a $14 million grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) — to design a revolutionary new microchip (codenamed “Trebuchet”). The microprocessor, to be designed by

Responding to artificial intelligence’s exploding demands on computer networks, Princeton University researchers in recent years have radically increased the speed and slashed the energy use of specialized AI systems. Now, the researchers have moved their innovation closer to widespread use by creating co-designed hardware and software that will allow designers to blend these new types
