Peripheral and device connectivity to host computing systems has long been fraught with challenges: connector differences, lack of support for some interface types, not enough ports of another type — the list goes on. In the consumer space, this
Central Processing Unit (CPU) technology has been evolving since the application of the integrated circuit in 1960. Many of us were first introduced to CPU technology with single-core devices. The first dual-core designs didn’t make it to market
A major consideration when building an automation, machine vision
In our ever-evolving landscape of technology, advancement remains central to defining how we connect and communicate. In computing applications, the Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) standard is among the most significant examples of this
A system-on-chip (SoC), as its name implies, is an entire computer system or platform integrated onto a single device or integrated circuit. Within the circuit, an SoC includes a central processing unit (CPU), a graphical processing unit (GPU), memory,
Computer component performance rapidly evolves, with faster central and graphical processing units (CPUs and GPUs), faster and larger system memory (RAM), more robust system bus technology, and enhanced input and output interfaces. All these things have
While Windows remains the dominant operating system (OS) for most PC-based tasks, Linux has established itself as a superior operating system for applications that require the highest reliability, security, and performance, such as defense, security,
It’s always a balancing act trying to get what you need without wasting money by acquiring too much. Choosing the right amount of memory for an industrial PC running Windows 10 or Ubuntu is no exception. How much is enough? The short answer is:
It’s common practice in industrial computing to customize I/O using plug-in cards with a standardized motherboard interface. But many approaches, especially those adapted from desktop computing, make compromises in size, height, or ruggedness. Not
