Not every microcontroller can handle artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) chores. Simplifying the models is one way to squeeze algorithms into a more compact embedded compute engine. Another way is to pair it with an AI accelerator like Femtosense’s Sparse Processing Unit (SPU) SPU-001 and take advantage of sparsity in AI/ML models.
In this episode, Sam Fok, CEO at Femtosense, talks about AI/ML on the edge, the company's dual sparsity design, and how the small, low power SPU-001 can augment a host processor.

As navigation becomes increasingly vulnerable to jamming, spoofing, or complete denial, military forces operating in contested environments face significant challenges, not just in navigation, but in coordination, safety, and mission success. ANELLO Photonics has developed an innovative Silicon Photonics Optical Gyroscope (SiPhOG) to serve autonomous vehicles using silicon photonics, accelerometers, and gyroscopes for accurate and reliable positioning and navigation.

In this episode, we talk to Jerry Twomey, an engineering consultant with a deep background in electronics design, medical devices, electro-mechanical systems, and board-level integrated circuits. He is the author of the book “Applied Embedded Electronics – Design Essentials for Robust Systems," a comprehensive reference that covers the design process from initial concept to final PCB, for all embedded system electronics.

Mike Engelhardt is an American computer programmer, author, and entrepreneur who is renowned for developing the SPICE-based analog electronic circuit simulator computer software. Known for his wide-brimmed hat and bow tie, Mike is the innovative mind behind Qorvo’s simulator, QSPICE, and is not just known for his technical acumen, but also for his often unconventional approach to engineering. In this podcast, we get to sit down with him and talk about electronics and engineering from his point of view.

Penetrating deep space to unlock the secrets of the universe, the ESO Extremely Large Telescope uses adaptive optics to correct for atmospheric disturbances to extract more light, achieving higher-resolution imaging.
Among the technologies required, Microgate provides the control systems that mechanically deform the mirror to manipulate the observed wavefront to correct for atmospheric disturbances and improve the image quality using contactless, linear voice-coil motors.

The 2025 IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society (MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium is taking place from the 15th to the 20th of June 2025 in San Francisco, California.
In this podcast, we talk to Jin Baines, the CEO of Mini-Circuits, and Wendy Shu, the CEO of Eravant, about the event and some of the opportunities it provides to visitors.

The Eclipse Foundation's Eclipse SDV Working Group supports an open source platform for software defined vehicles (SDV). This takes a lot of work from participating companies like Codethink.
In this podcast, William Wong chats with Codethink’s President, John Ellis, about the challenges of using open source software in this arena.
-
Traditional vision systems based on cameras are really geared towards image storage, not image processing, and certainly don't detect motion, and you have to compare video frame-by-frame to figure out if something moves. In this episode, we talk to SiLC Technologies CEO, Dr. Mehdi Asghari, about the state of the art in machine vision and what the company is doing in that space.

Electric motors play a key role in converting electrical power into motive power. This episode of Inside Electronics has Andy chatting with Turntide, a designer and manufacturer of axial flux motors, about the operating principles and optimal applications for AFMs, including diesel hybrids, tidal power generation, ship propulsion, and military use for land, sea and air.

Spiking neural networks (SNN) are an implementation of neuromorphic computing, an aspect of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). Neuromorphic computing emulates the operation of physical neurons like those found in the human brain.
In this episode, Electronic Design’s Senior Content Director, Bill Wong, talks with Steven Brightfield, Chief Marketing Officer at Brainchip, about SNNs and their Akida platform.

In this episode, William Wong talks with with Andrew Banks, Technical Specialist at LDRA. LDRA’s MISRA C/C++ support is a central piece of its static analysis tools that exceed the requirements of MISRA C/C++. MISRA C:2012 offered new guidelines and the latest MISRA C standard is MISRA C:2023. MISRA C++ is a separate standard but with the same approach to improving developer’s coding process.

When it comes to wireless systems, we are in a disruptive evolutionary phase, with an interesting combination of multiple advanced solutions looking for application spaces to address. In this episode, Host Alix Paultre chats with Viavi's Ian Wong about upcoming technological advancements in the wireless and telecommunications space.
-
Conventional image sensors capture a frame at a time while event-based vision sensors track changes of individual pixels. In this episode, Dr. Luca Verre, Founder of Prophesee, talks about the company's event-based sensor and how it works.
An event-based imaging system can detect changes more accurately while reducing bandwidth and power requirements assuming all of the pixels do not change between frames. This is often the case for many applications especially industrial imaging applications.
-
NOR flash memory has been a mainstay for microcontrollers and microprocessors for code and data storage while NAND flash has been used for data storage. The latter has higher capacity on its side but NOR is the choice where reliability and performance are important.
Electronic Design Editor Bill Wong talks with Miin Wu, Chairman and CEO at Macronix International, about their 3D NOR technology.
-
Rust is a relatively new programming language that has garnered support from developers working on everything from Linux device drivers to cloud services. Rust pointer management is one thing that makes the language stand out.
As an open-source project, it cannot be used directly in many applications where things like IEC 62304 and ISO 26262 are needed. This requires a version that meets these requirements which is where Ferrous Systems’ Ferrocene comes into play.
In this episode, Ferrous Systems’ Florian Gilcher talks about Rust, Ferrocene, and how these it brings Rust into the world of rugged and embedded systems.

When many consider vehicle electrification, they tend to dive into the granularity of the solution sets and how do we get to where we're going. However, there are also application-specific needs that should be addressed in their migration to electric vehicles. Andy Turudic from Electronic Design and Paul Peluso from Officer Magazine chat about considerations, challenges and opportunities when it comes to patrol cars.
-
Timing and synchronization are vital to electronics in many ways, from on-board circuit control to inter-device communications, to network management and beyond. The ability to accurately time and coordinate events, data, and signals is fundamental to the performance of a smart connected embedded system today.
We talk to Q-Tech's former president, Ron Stephens, about advanced timing systems and the applications they serve.
