Propeller Bundles – Buy A Compiler, Get a Free Board…

For limited time, we are offering a free Propeller Demo Board when you purchase a Propeller C compiler, both the -NC and STD versions. This is the same board that retails for $80.

Commodity pricing, PSoC, Propeller, XMega, 430X, XGate, Cortex, new IDE et. al.

Our company was incorporated in 1994 on the assumption that while embedded development tools are not a commodity product per se, if we lowered the price of entry and provided products and services with a good price/performance ratio, then we could satisfy a market need and create a decent business.  Now that we have been in business for over 14 years, I’d say we were correct in that aspect.  Not that we don’t have competitors, of course!  In fact, some of our competitors have now been adopting a “scorched earth” strategy: they put out free versions that are limited in

The core features of preemptive multitasking and message passing are nice, but we also carefully added additional features such as stack checking, virtual watchdog, and system call error checking, which can save

Polling for the Future… TCP/IP stack

Now that eMOS for AVR is in beta, time to polish off the crystal balls some more. I have a consultant looking at CANLIB for AVR already. I’d think that a robust, fast, small, full-feature TCP/IP stack is high on the list of things we should do. Problem there is there are 4 qualifiers there, and as they usually say, you can get 2 out of 3, or 3 out of 4. So what features would you want in a TCP/IP stack? A compiler tie-in is that someone suggested that we provide some sort of API so that a program
