In multicore embedded systems, efficient communication between cores is key to achieving performance and reliability. In the final part of this #debugging series, Bea explores how to overcome #inter_core messaging challenges in #Zephyr #RTOS using #SystemView and #Ozone. From

Check out this new DevHeads article by Ibtihal Ben Ali ("Bea"), diving into #MulticoreDebugging in #ZephyrRTOS — this time tackling #CacheCoherency and how shared cache levels (L1, L2, L3) can impact system reliability. 👉 Read it here: https://t.co/A1UjkVpFcr Bea walks through

One of our community members recently shared a tricky issue during the SD protocol initialization stage on an #STM32F4 Discovery board using a generic SD memory shield. While sending the ACMD51 command to read the Status Card Register on the DAT0 line, the command failed with

Watch as Umesh demonstrates a live setup of a #TCP client–server using the #STM32 #microcontroller and the #W5500 #Ethernet module. You’ll see the TCP connection come to life — from physical hardware to real-time data exchange! 👉 Watch the complete video here:

📍 In this short clip, Umesh explains why the very first step in setting up #Ethernet communication with #STM32 is to create a #socket — and why continuously checking link status is critical for keeping your device connected. But this is just the beginning 👇 In the full
