Community-Backed Open-Source Initiatives Help Unlock MCU Capabilities (Download)

May 7, 2024

Read this article online.

Developers throughout the world know the value of microcontrollers (MCUs). From their first introduction to the simplest of applications, MCUs have followed a never-ending course of feature advancement. Today, such devices underpin all aspects of our lives, from industrial applications such as automation and the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to personal applications like health trackers and smart home devices.

Engineers developing solutions utilizing MCUs face several technical barriers slowing the deployment rate—variations in development platforms, the sheer breadth of hardware devices, and the constant demand for increasing levels of functionality are all constant challenges.
