Embedded Executive: Rolf Segger, Founder, Chief Strategist, Segger Microcontroller

August 03, 2022 16:00 - 11 minutes - 7.66 MB

When you have a chance to chat with somebody who is a pioneer in the embedded space, you grab it. And that’s what happened this week when Rolf Segger, Founder of Segger Microcontroller, agreed to be my guest on this this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.  Rolf is known for not pulling any punches and he was quite honest with me when we discussed what’s happening in the world of embedded. We talked about RTOSs and security amongst other topics.

Embedded Executive: Marco Leon, Director, Systems Architecture Engineering, Mercury Systems

July 27, 2022 15:00 - 12 minutes - 8.92 MB

Are you familiar with model-based systems engineering (MBSE)? I have to admit that I was not familiar with, but it looked like something I should know about. To educate myself, I had a discussion with Marco Leon, the Director of Systems Architecture Engineering at Mercury Systems, in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. As a relatively new technique, it's designed to reduce your design risk.

Embedded Executive: Dave Smith, Co-Founder, VP, BlackPearl

July 20, 2022 15:00 - 9 minutes - 6.48 MB

When it comes to embedded computers for industrial applications, size does matter—sometimes. Many of the industrial platforms cut a fairly wide berth, so you can take a lot of liberties with the embedded computer board. But for those applications where space is at a premium, systems integrators don’t have the same number of options. One option that’s now available is the Interceptor from BlackPearl Technology. In this week’s Embedded Executives podcast, I spoke to Dave Smith, Co-Founder and ...

Embedded Executive: Ravi Annavajjhala, CEO, Kinara

July 12, 2022 18:00 - 7 minutes - 4.88 MB

Processors to handle AI at the Edge are quite complex. However, that hasn’t stopped so many companies from producing their variants. In some cases, they come from the established MCU providers, and in other cases, they come from startups. Kinara fits that latter category. As we discussed in this this week’s Embedded Executives podcast, it’s really hard to differentiate yourself. I asked the company’s CEO, Ravi Annavajjhala, what makes his company stand out amongst some pretty stiff competiti...

Embedded Executive: John Costello, Corporate VP, Government Affairs, Microchip

July 06, 2022 17:00 - 11 minutes - 8.14 MB

I have done lots of these Embedded Executive podcasts, a few hundred in fact. This particular podcast goes in a direction I have never gone before, and involves the mafia (yes, you read that correctly). John Costello, who serves as the Corporate Vice President Government Affairs for Microchip Technology, has some stories to tell that involve members of his (literal) family, and their dealings on the dark side. John wrote a book called Executive Hoodlum that’s extremely interesting and we cov...

Embedded Executive: Kirk Wehby, CEO, Smith

June 29, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.54 MB

For starters, Smith is the largest electronics distributer that I have never heard of. They are a multi-billion-dollar company. One of the strengths of the company is ensuring that its products are real (as opposed to counterfeits). That’s harder than it sounds, but vital to a developer. As we know, fake parts likely don’t provide the same operating characteristics as real parts. To understand how Smith tackles this process, I spoke to the company’s CEO, Kirk Wehby in this week’s Embedded Ex...

Embedded Executive: Richard Lind, CEO, IAR Systems

June 15, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.3 MB

Richard Lind is about seven months into his role as CEO of IAR Systems, one of the leaders in embedded development tools. One of his biggest competitors has a huge advantage—their tool is free! Or is it really? That’s the question I asked of Richard, and he had a very interesting response in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Jeffrey Morroni, Dir. of Power Management R&D for Kilby Labs, Texas Instruments

June 08, 2022 15:00 - 11 minutes - 8.02 MB

Texas Instruments is a big company. One thing that’s afforded by a company of its size is a lab that can help the various product groups on their designs. And that’s the role of Kilby Labs at TI. The group is good at assessing risk, understanding whether a product should follow through to full development, and so on. To explain it far better than that, I invited Dr. Jeffrey Morroni, the Director of Power Management R&D for Kilby Labs, at Texas Instruments on this week’s Embedded Executives p...

Embedded Executive: Jaidev Amrite, Director of Product Management, SparkCognition

June 01, 2022 15:00 - 12 minutes - 8.3 MB

Artificial intelligence is all the rage. Combine that with the huge amount of video that’s being captured. When you put these two phenomena together, you can (potentially) do some great things. And those great things are done by making use of the analytics that comes from the video after running through an AI engine. Confused? I know that I was, and for that reason, I invited Jaidev Amrite, the Director of Product Management at SparkCognition to be my guest on this week’s Embedded Executives...

Embedded Executive: Denis Marcon, GM, Innoscience Europe

May 25, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.01 MB

The chip shortage and supply-chain issues are not getting better. In some cases, it might be a simple, inexpensive IC that holds up your production. But it doesn’t matter whether it’s a 50-cent part or a $200 microprocessor. That assembly line treats them equally when the supply runs dry. To that end, the folks at Innoscience, one of the largest suppliers of GaN components, say that they are not experiencing the same issues as competitors (and non-competitors). Why is that the case? That’s...

Embedded Executive: Sailesh Chittipeddi, EVP & GM of the IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit, Renesas

May 18, 2022 16:00 - 9 minutes - 6.35 MB

The hardware side of RISC-V is ready for prime time. No one questions that. The case against RISC-V has always been the tools and associated software, aka, the ecosystem. However, is that still a valid argument against RISC-V? That’s the first of many questions I posed to Sailesh Chittipeddi, the Executive Vice President & General Manager of Renesas’ IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit. His company has a lot to potentially gain with RISC-V, so I was interested in hearing his opinion, wh...

Embedded Executive: Paul Keely, Chief Cloud Officer, Open Systems

May 11, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.17 MB

AI is regularly in the spotlight because of all the great things that can be accomplish with it. However, while we don’t want to think of it that way, it’s also possible that AI can be used for nefarious reasons, and unfortunately, that’s what’s starting to happen. In this week’s Embedded Executives podcast, I spoke to Paul Keely, the Chief Cloud Officer for Open Systems. Paul explained how this is actually happening with AI technology, and what you should do to protect yourself.

Embedded Executive: Marc Pégulu, VP of IoT, Semtech

May 04, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.15 MB

We've been touting the benefits of long-range wide-area networks (WANs) for a long time now, but at what point do we say, “they’ve arrived”?  And what does that arrival even look like? Those are the questions I asked Marc Pégulu, Vice President of IoT in the wireless and sensing products group at Semtech, a company that is driving force behind LoRaWAN, the most popular WAN version. Tune in to hear more in this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

AI in Public Safety Applications

May 03, 2022 17:00 - 7 minutes - 5.39 MB

It’s always a great thing when technology is used for good reasons. Especially for safety and security purposes. We’ve seen a lot of examples of how AI can be used in airports, buses, train stations, and even college campuses to detect unusual activity. In this podcast we a joined by a product manager from AVerMedia to go though how and where this technology works best.

Embedded Executive: Duncan Bosworth, GM, Consumer Business Unit, Analog Devices

April 27, 2022 17:00 - 10 minutes - 6.97 MB

Consumer products and technology continue to evolve, particularly how we interact with them. Ensuring that the interaction is a smooth and seamless one is more difficult than it sounds. To that end, I spoke to Duncan Bosworth, General Manager of Custom Silicon and Consumer Solutions in Analog Devices’ Consumer Business Unit on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. We discussed the interactions themselves, as well as how important the (lack of) power consumption is to the success of these ...

Embedded Executive: Michael Rada, Industry 5.0 Expert

April 20, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.01 MB

I have said for some time that there is a lot of confusion over what Industry 5.0 actually is. In this situation, I use the old “ask five people, get five different answers” axiom. Michael Rada, who has been following this standard since its inception, begs to differ, saying that there is no confusion. It’s very black and white. To that end, I thought it would be appropriate to have Michael come on as a guest to explain A) what the spec actually says, and B) why there is confusion. Hear wh...

The Road to embedded world: Diamond Systems

April 13, 2022 19:00 - 6 minutes - 4.23 MB

The road to embedded world this week takes us to Diamond Systems. But now we are taking a different route, per se. We are letting Jonathon Miller, the President of Diamond Systems, tell the story himself via a podcast. Jonathon discusses the products and technologies the company will be announcing, displaying, and demonstrating. In addition, Jonathon discusses the latest happenings with PC104.  Check out the other stops we’ve made on the road to embedded world: MACTRON GROUP, MiTAC, Neousys...

Embedded Executive: Sasan Montaseri, Founder, ITTIA

April 06, 2022 16:00 - 8 minutes - 5.63 MB

IoT databases are different from general databases. Really? That was a surprise to me. To understand the difference, I invited Sasan Montaseri, the founder of ITTIA to join me on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. Sasan has a lot of insight into this technology, particularly with respect to how you need to secure that database.

Embedded Executive: Paul Beckmann, CEO, DSP Concepts

March 30, 2022 16:00 - 10 minutes - 7.46 MB

Applications that require high-quality audio are fraught with issues. It may be a video conference call with lots of background noise or people that are too close or too far from the microphone. Or it could be an audio-enabled appliance that just can’t seem to get it right. But that’s changing, according to Paul Beckmann, the CEO and Founder of DSP Concepts. Paul was my guest on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast and he is behind a lot of these techniques that are driving the latest aud...

Embedded Executive: Jim Liu, CEO, ADLINK

March 22, 2022 17:00 - 7 minutes - 5.24 MB

Our embedded industry continues to change as the industry evolves with the latest technologies. As a result, the vendors who serve those industries must evolve as well. One such vendor, ADLINK Technologies, has gone public with how they plan to evolve. To understand exactly what that means, I invited Jim Liu, ADLINLK’s CEP to join me on this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. 

Embedded Executive: Phillip LoPresti, CEO, Tanvas

March 16, 2022 15:00 - 11 minutes - 7.85 MB

Curved displays are nothing new, but as you would expect, there has been lots of innovation in the space. These curved displays are starting to show up in new places, particularly in automobiles. Why has this technology become more of a reality? That’s what us asked in my discussion with Phillip LoPresti, the CEO of Tanvas, in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Quentin Ochem, Product Management Lead, AdaCore and Florian Gilcher, Managing Director, Ferrous Systems

March 09, 2022 16:00 - 11 minutes - 7.81 MB

AdaCore is one of the leaders in the Ada programming language. Ada has been around for a long time, and is time tested. AdaCore recently announced that it is working with Rust, which is far newer than Ada. To me, that sounds like a disconnect. To understand how and why this marriage occurred, I invited Quentin Ochem, the Lead for Product Management and Business Development at AdaCore and Florian Gilcher, the Managing Director of Ferrous Systems for this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Christian Eder, Chairman, COM-HPC Working Group, PICMG

February 22, 2022 17:00 - 7 minutes - 5.5 MB

We are now about a year into the official launch of PICMG’s COM-HPC standard. The spec launched with a lot of fanfare from the association, many of its members, and from Embedded Computing Design. To see what’s happened over the past year, I invited Christian Eder to join my weekly Embedded Executives podcast. Christian plays a key role within PICMG, serving as Chairman of the COM-HPC working group. Christian is also the Director of Marketing for congatec.

Embedded Executive: Shawn Slusser, Sr. VP, Infineon

February 16, 2022 16:00 - 10 minutes - 6.91 MB

Infineon is undergoing a fairly significant change, in my eyes at least. Whether it’s an intentional move or just one that’s happening through an unintended culture change, there’s no doubt that it is happening. What I mean by this is that, again in my opinion, the company is changing from one with a German culture to one with a Silicon Valley culture. It’s possible (and likely) that the acquisition of Cypress Semi had a lot to do with that. Is this culture shift a good thing? In my opin...

Embedded Executive: Joe Liefer, Sr. Product Manager, John Deere

February 09, 2022 16:00 - 9 minutes - 6.59 MB

John Deere is pushing the envelope in the farming space. The company is on the leading edge with technologies like autonomous tractors. From my limited knowledge of the farming industry, that seems like it’s beyond what farmers are asking for. But I’ve clearly been misinformed, as the farmers are way ahead of what I realized, partly thanks to innovations from the likes of John Deere. Hear what they are providing in my interview with Joe Liefer, a Senior Product Manager for Autonomy for John ...

Embedded Executive: Cees Links, GM, Wireless Business Division, Qorvo

February 02, 2022 15:00 - 11 minutes - 8.27 MB

WiFi is on the move again. WiFi 6 is becoming more entrenched, but WiFi 7 is just around the corner. Are these new iterations really necessary, or is it just a way to get users to upgrade to the latest and greatest? To that end, I invited Cees Links, the General Manager of Qorvo’s Wireless Business Division to join me for this week’s Embedded Executives podcast. In this episode, Cees runs through all the advantages and tradeoffs associated with each new flavor of WiFi , so designers and cons...

Embedded Executive: Carlos Morales, VP of AI, Ambiq

January 26, 2022 15:00 - 10 minutes - 7.28 MB

Sub-threshold technology has pushed microprocessor power levels down to places we have not seen before.  While it’s not a new technology, but something that Ambiq has been implementing for many years, why haven’t other vendors implemented it, if it’s so promising? That’s the question I started with in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast with my guest,  Ambiq’s Vice President of AI, Carlos Morales.

Embedded Executive: Rajinder Cheema, SVP of Engineering, Socionext America

January 19, 2022 16:00 - 10 minutes - 7.44 MB

The discussion of SoC versus ASSP has been going on for as long as these devices have existed. The pendulum seems to shift over time, depending on which applications are hot at the moment (is there currently a killer app?), how much the manufacturing costs are, and a host of other factors. To understand where the discussion sits today, I spoke to Rajinder Cheema, the Senior Vice President of Engineering at Socionext America in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Steve Graves, President and CEO, McObject

January 11, 2022 18:00 - 9 minutes - 6.88 MB

We’ve been talking a lot lately about what it means to be “real time.” In theory, it’s not something that’s achievable. But in practice, “good enough” is good enough for many applications. Another product to hit the market recently is a real-time database, developed by McObject. When I saw that release, I jumped at the chance to speak to Steve Graves, McObject’s President and CEO, to see if his definition matched mine. Check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to hear Steve’s thoughts.

Embedded Computing Design’s 2022 Tech Industry Predictions

January 05, 2022 16:00 - 10 minutes - 7.38 MB

Since we’ve turned the page on a new year, it’s time to make some predictions. I asked Brandon Lewis, the Embedded Computing Design Editor-in-Chief, to join me and make some predictions for the new year. Some are likely expected and some might surprise you. Hear our thoughts in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Cliff Ortmeyer, Global Head of Technology Product Marketing, Newark

December 22, 2021 15:00 - 11 minutes - 7.73 MB

Newark recently conducted a poll of Makers and Professional Makers, looking at their board choices, operating environments, architectures, and so on. The results from the study were pretty eye-opening. Hence why I had a discussion with Cliff Ortmeyer, Newark’s Global Head of Technology Product Marketing and Solutions Development. We talked about results of the poll, why the respondents chose to respond they way they did, and whether developers were making choices for the right reasons. Check...

Embedded Executive: Steve Hanna, Distinguished Engineer, Infineon Technologies and Chris LaPre, Director of Technology, CSA

December 14, 2021 18:00 - 10 minutes - 6.94 MB

The Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) continues to be a force to be reckoned with within our embedded space. And I mean that in a good way. Today, we are discussing the security of consumer devices, which falls under the Matter portion of the CSA. That security design is now complete and the open-source implementation is near-ready. According to Steve Hanna, a Distinguished Engineer at Infineon Technologies, Matter will be raising the security bar to where it needs to be. Obviously, sec...

Embedded Executive: Yasser Khan, CEO/Co-Founder, MicroAI

December 08, 2021 15:00 - 9 minutes - 6.8 MB

AI should be performed at the Edge whenever possible, according to Yasser Khan,  CEO and Co-Founder of MicroAI. But there seems to be just as many reasons to do it in the Cloud. This is where the back-and-forth began in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Heather Gorr, Senior Product Manager, Mathworks

December 01, 2021 15:00 - 9 minutes - 6.38 MB

There are many applications that require real-time interactions. Automotive certainly fits into that category. But the term “real time” is bothersome to me, as it’s not something that’s achievable. We can get “near real time,” but that’s about as good as it gets. But is that good enough? That’s the question I asked Heather Gorr,  Senior Product Marketing Manager for the MATLAB product at Mathworks, in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Patrick Kowalyk, North American Automotive Principal Field Apps Engineer

November 17, 2021 16:00 - 10 minutes - 7.53 MB

EVs can be confusing from a “what voltage does it run at” perspective. We have the 12-V lead-acid batteries that have been around for decades. But there are many new sizes, types, chemistries, and voltages. According to Patrick Kowalyk, a North American Automotive Principal Field Applications Engineer for Vicor, the way in which we deliver power within the automobile needs to change. To hear exactly how, tune in to this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Robert Bielby, Sr. Dir. of Automotive System Architecture, Micron

November 10, 2021 15:00 - 15 minutes - 10.3 MB

When designing your embedded system, the storage subsystem is not always at the top of the priority list. Depending on your system, that may be okay. But if you’re designing for automotive applications, that’s one way to get yourself in hot water. In this week’s Embedded Executives podcast, I talked to Robert Bielby, Micron’s Senior Director of Automotive System Architecture, to understand why the memory subsystem needs to move up the list, potentially way up.

Embedded Executive: Alan Grau, VP Business Development, PQShield

November 03, 2021 15:00 - 7 minutes - 4.92 MB

We say it all the time: you are going to get hacked! The most important factor at this point is to minimize the damage when the inevitable occurs. If cybersecurity is not one of your top design priorities, you need to adjust your list. That said, this week’s Embedded Executives podcast guest is Alan Grau, the Vice President of Business Development for PQShield. Alan explains the pretty simple terms of what happens when an attack occurs and why it may be happening.  Note that Alan is also a ...

Embedded Executive: Stephan Mellor, CTO, IIC

October 27, 2021 15:00 - 7 minutes - 5.24 MB

The IIC, formerly known as the Industrial Internet Consortium, has a new name. They’re still the IIC, but now the acronym stands for Industry IoT Consortium. You may be surprised why they made the change; I know that I was.  IIC’s Chief Technology Officer, Stephan Mellor, has the answer in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Donato Montanari, VP and GM, Machine Vision, Zebra Technologies

October 20, 2021 17:00 - 8 minutes - 5.93 MB

Low-end AI might be an oxymoron, because it’s hard to associate anything to do with AI as being low-end. But with AI evolving so rapidly, there really can be a case made for lower-end AI with machine vision. To understand what that means, what products fit that category, and most importantly, how it effects today’s embedded developers, check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast with Donato Montanari, the Vice President and General Manager of Machine Vision at Zebra Technologies.

Embedded Executive: Thomas Casey, VP, ISI

October 13, 2021 20:00 - 7 minutes - 5.32 MB

ISI, or Interconnect Systems International, was acquired by Molex in the recent past. The company is in the manufacturing space, particularly in terms of packaging, at both the chip and board levels. That puts the company in an interesting position when it comes to the chip shortage, as the company’s engineers have the ability to help customers redesign the boards to accommodate for different parts to replace those that simply are not available. To that end, I spoke with Tom Casey, a Vice pr...

Embedded Executive: Rob McCormick, Director, InnoPhase

October 06, 2021 16:00 - 10 minutes - 7.37 MB

If you could operate WiFi at the power levels typically associated with Bluetooth, do you really need Bluetooth anymore? I would think not, because WiFi offers so much more functionality, particularly the longer range. However, as this is usually the case, the answer is, “not so fast.” I asked that question (and many more) of Rob McCormick, a Director at InnoPhase, a company that specializes in low-power WiFi. He set me straight—for now. Check out this week’s Embedded Executives podcast to h...

Embedded Executive: Mike Schnecker, Business Development Manager, Rohde & Schwarz

September 29, 2021 16:00 - 9 minutes - 6.87 MB

Testing for physical interfaces, especially in the automotive space, can be quite challenging. It’s a harsh environment for starters, but there are other issues to contend with as well. I went through those issues, and how to deal with them with Mike Schnecker, a Business Development Manager for Rohde & Schwarz in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.

Embedded Executive: Clay Johnson, CEO and Co-Founder, CacheQ Systems

September 22, 2021 16:00 - 8 minutes - 5.78 MB

In theory, developers should be writing their code well before the hardware is available. In practice, that’s not usually the case, for a host of reasons. CacheQ Systems has come up with a method that greatly simplifies this process, and really does allow developers to get down to business without the ready hardware. How do they do that? That’s what you’ll learn in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast with Clay Johnson, CacheQ Systems’ CEO) and Co-Founder.

Embedded Executive: Tom Doyle, Founder and CEO, Aspinity

September 15, 2021 17:00 - 11 minutes - 8.13 MB

Are you familiar with “analog machine learning?” If the answer is yes, then you’re likely in the minority. I find myself in the other group. Hence, in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast, I spoke to Tom Doyle, Aspinity’s Founder and CEO. Aspinity specializes in that technology and Tom explained what it is, how it works, and why I should care.

Embedded Executive: Johnson Chen, Executive, Winbond

September 08, 2021 16:00 - 11 minutes - 8.08 MB

The global chip shortage continues to rage on, and it appears to be worsening rather than getting better. Different people have different reasons for why we are in this predicament, and Johnson Chen, an Executive at Winbond, is no different. Johnson brings a little different perspective, as he spends his time in Taiwan, and is focused on some specific applications, like automotive. Check out what he had to say in this week’s Embedded Executives podcast.
