Digi Custom Design for Embedded Hardware and Software Development

The challenges of embedded device development have grown over the last few decades. In the past, it was typical to use 8- or 16-bit microcontrollers to create the functionality of an embedded device. These systems typically were programmed in Assembly and C, and used either no embedded operating system, or a simple event scheduler developed in-house. At some point these designs must be replaced by the next generation. This replacement creates some new problems, as the development organization needs to adapt to new requirements.
