Without a doubt, Raspberry Pi is a great initiative and a great embedded computer board for education and for the makers. But, there are many limitations which makes it less likely choice for a commercial product. If you are interested to learn those aspects, read here.
Inspite of those limitations…
If you are building an IoT product and planning to use cellular GSM/GPRS connection for internet connectivity, the information mentioned in this article is critical for you.
Internet connectivity has become a basic need for today’s embedded products. It not only provides a way to transfer the data and mechanism…
Raspberry Pi compute module is a great embedded Linux development platform for building a Commercial or an Industrial Product. It is a low-cost module running Quad-core ARM (BCM2837) processor with 1GB RAM, 8/16/32GB eMMC (on CM3+ variant), bundled with a lot of IOs on a 200-pin SODIMM edge connector.
If…

There are various circuit protections required to make sure your product is capable of working well in the harsh environmental commercial and industrial environment.
Some of the critical protections which are required for any embedded products are:
2. Protection for interfaces / IOs like GPIOs, RS232, RS485
3. Software Protection
4. Protections from Environmental conditions like:
Hope this helps.

Onion Omega2S / 2S+ a Linux computer module was launched specifically for IoT (OEMs) applications. Omega2S feature interfaces like USB, SDHC/eMMC storage support, Ethernet, 3x UARTs, I2C, SPI, I2S, GPIOs, etc.
The cost of the module is very attractive. Many engineers would like to use this module for their embedded…
Low power consumption of an embedded system is an important aspect when designing a battery-powered product. There is no single rule which can be followed universally for all type of requirements. It is certainly a mix of system design, circuit design, and firmware design. …
Price of a product is a critical parameter when it comes to a wider adoption or response from the market. Designers & manufacturers are always looking for ways to reduce the costs so that they can give the most value to their customers at an affordable price.
Thumb rule …
Web-based user interface for your IoT product
Almost all products need some or the other user interface for setting up the device in the production or to let the user interact with the device
There are several ways to provide a user interface, some are given below:
Many times there is a need to reduce the size of the electronic circuit due to various reasons like, to reduce bulkiness, to reduce space it takes on the table, to eliminate the mounting challenges with a bigger & heavy design, reduce shipping cost, etc.
Below are 10 ways which…
