Computers can be used indefinitely as long as they don’t break down, but they are likely to fail due to the aging and damage of various components on the motherboard, such as capacitors. Many of my colleagues are still using old computers, with quite a few around 10 years old. However, compared to what many … Read more
Introduction to Embedded Processors Embedded processors are the core of embedded systems, serving as the hardware unit that controls and assists system operations. Their range is extremely vast, from the initial 4-bit processors to the 8-bit microcontrollers that are still widely used today, to the latest 32-bit and 64-bit embedded CPUs that are increasingly favored. … Read more
