At the Embedded Systems Show in San Jose, California, this week Freescale introduced a dual-core system-on-chip (SoC) in its mobileGT processor family, the MPC5123. The device will, Freescale says, simplify embedded-Linux OS-based product development and reduce power requirements and system cost for ...
The PIC 10/12/16 PRO package from Hi-Tech uses “super-optimising” OCG compiler technology to minimise code size. Rather than the “global” optimisations that most compilers claim – which, says supplier <a href=''http://www.computer-solutions.co.uk/download/hi-tech/sleeping-chips.pdf'' ....
