Helping New Bloggers to Break the Ice: A New Ipad Pro for the Author with the Best Article!
Breaking the ice can be tough. Over the years, many individuals have asked to be given access to the blogging interface only to never post an article.
Welcoming MANY New Bloggers!
The response to the latest call for bloggers has been amazing and I am very grateful.
In this post I present to you the individuals who, so far (I am still receiving applications at an impressive rate and will update this page as more bloggers are added), have been given access to the blogging interface. I am very pleased with the positive response and I think the near future will see the publication of many great articles, given the quality of the...

DSPRelated and EmbeddedRelated now on Facebook & I will be at EE Live!
I have two news to share with you today.
The first one is that I finally created Facebook pages for DSPRelated.com and EmbeddedRelated (DSPRelated page - EmbeddedRelated page). For a long time I didn't feel that this was something that was needed, but it seems that these days more and more people are using their Facebook account to stay updated with their favorite websites. In any event, if you have a Facebook account, I would greatly appreciate if you could use the next 5 seconds to "like"...
Free Embedded Systems Books
Following the success of the Collaborative Writing Experiment: What are your favorite Embedded Systems Online Resources? blog post, let's try a second collaborative writing experiment. This time, let's work on a file that will list the best embedded systems books that are available online for free. I am not talking about books that are illegally made available for download by pirates, but books that are made available online by authors and/or publishers.

Success Story
A blog post has just broken the all-time record for the number of pageviews in 24 hours on the related sites. The blog post in question is titled Data Hiding in C and was written by Stephen Friederichs. It has been viewed by more than 7000 individuals since its publication a few days ago.
One reason that explains the success of this blog post is the wide appeal of the subject of the article (c programming) which allowed me to

Wow, thanks a lot for all the code snippets - I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of the code that has been shared and I am very grateful.
Now, as you know, to give momentum to the section I had announced a special reward program for code snippets submitted by the end of March.
The partner members and I had a very hard time selecting the 5 "most useful" snippets out of the more than 50 who have been submitted.
Here's our selection:

What to See at Embedded World 2023
Embedded World 2023 is just around the corner, and I am thrilled to be attending this year's edition in Nuremberg, Germany. The last time I was there was three years ago, and the world was on the cusp of a major pandemic. It was a surreal experience as many booths and exhibits were empty and cordoned off by security tape due to last-minute cancellations. It was clear that something big was happening.
But with more than 900 vendors exhibiting this year, I'm glad to see that Embedded...
Behold, the New Comments System!
I have just finished implementing a new system for commenting the blogs. It uses Ajax extensively, so the page won't reload if you post a comment. And it is a 'threaded' system, which means that if you post a reply to a comment, it will be attached to it.
What do you think? I personally love it. Please go ahead and test it with a quick comment.
Although it is better to be logged in to post a comment, non-registered users can also comment, but they will have...
Favorite Software AND Hardware Tools for Embedded Systems Development
Last year, at the Embedded Online Conference, we interviewed the speakers and asked them what were some of their favorite software and hardware tools for Embedded development.
We aggregated all their answers in one insightful video that you can watch here.
Although you should really watch the video in order to get the full picture, I've compiled the following non-exhaustive list for the fun of it (again, I cannot overstate enough how much valuable...

Best Embedded Systems pdf Documents Out There
There are thousands of pdf documents related to Embedded Systems available online. In fact, when I do a search in Google for:
embedded systems filetype:pdf
I get 4,340,000 results! A huge mix of articles, promotional documents, theses, etc.
Out of these 4 millions+ documents, I suspect that there must be at least a few hundreds jewels that deserve to be given more visibility.
Today, I am asking for your help (again!) to build a directory of some of the most useful pdf files out...
Blogs Section Now Online!
I am happy to announce that the blog section is now online.
Last week, I sent an email to all the members of EmbeddedRelated.com to ask for embedded systems experts who would be interested in blogging on the site. The response was very positive and I have selected 10 highly qualified individuals who will soon be writing here about all sorts of embedded systems related subjects. I am currently in the process of receiving their info (bio, photo, username, etc) and creating their bloggers'...
Who else is going to Embedded World 2017 in Nuremberg?
These days I am particularly excited. In a little bit less than a month and a half, I will be travelling to Nuremberg in Germany to attend Embedded World, by far the biggest Embedded Systems trade show with over 1000 vendors displaying their products and services.
I have downloaded the Duolingo app and I'm trying to do a minimum of 30 minutes per day to learn some German. So far, I know that 'Frau' is a woman, 'Mann' is a man, 'Danke' is thank you and 'tschüss' is bye - still a...
