discover the ins and outs of multi-core microcontrollers as Chip Gracey leads this week’s Hack Chat on Friday 5/5 at midday PDT. Chip established Parallax and has now been working for much more than a decade on the Propeller 2 design, a microcontroller which has 8 and 16 core options.
When it concerns embedded development, many people believe of a single process running. Doing much more than one task each time is an illusion offered by interrupts that stop one part of your program to spend a few cycles on another part before returning. The Propeller 2 has true parallel processing; each core can run its own part of the program. From the embedded engineer’s point of view that makes several real-time operations possible. Where things get truly interesting is how those cores work together.
Here’s your chance to hear about multi-core embedded first hand, from both the silicon design side and the firmware designer side. join us for a Parallax Hack chat this Friday at midday PDT.
