Using the Peripheral Management Unit – Part 3: What’s in a Descriptor?In this third installment, examine each of the eight peripheral management unit (PMU) instructions – also known as descriptors – and learn how they are used in simple programs to transfer data. In “Using the Peripheral Management Unit–Part 4,” we’ll go into the lab to build a program to demonstrate how the PMU can automate some tasks while the CPU sleeps.
Using the Peripheral Management Unit – Part 4: A PMU ProgramIn this video, learn how to use the demo project to blink the LEDs using the PMU and the real-time clock (RTC). The principles gained in this video will help you build your own PMU program for your next project. In the next video, “Using the Peripheral Management Unit–Part 5,” you’ll see how the main() program sets up and uses the PMU on the MAX32630 Evaluation Kit.
Using the Peripheral Management Unit – Part 1: What is the PMU?In this first video of a five-part series, learn about Maxim’s exclusive peripheral management unit (or PMU) and how it offloads the CPU core to extend the battery life of applications. In the next video, “Using the Peripheral Management Unit–Part 2,” we’ll examine how the PMU works and how to set it up.
Using the Peripheral Management Unit – Part 2: The SetupIn this next video of the series, take a closer look at how to configure Maxim’s peripheral management unit (PMU). Only three registers – a configuration register, a descriptor address register, and a loop counter – need to be programmed in each channel to setup the PMU. In the next video, “Using the Peripheral Management Unit–Part 3,” we’ll examine each of the PMU descriptors in detail.
Using the Peripheral Management Unit – Part 5: Putting It All TogetherIn this last installment of our video series, examine the main() program as we pull all the pieces together. Watch the demo program run on the MAX32630 Evaluation Kit to see how the PMU can run tasks to offload the main CPU.
Secure Boot and Secure Download - Part 1: Protecting IoT Devices with Secure AuthenticationDiscover how malicious attacks can infect embedded firmware prevalent in many of today’s IoT or microcontroller-based devices. You’ll learn the ways attackers exploit vulnerabilities within the device and the importance of verifying the authenticity and validity of product firmware through secure boot and download. To learn more about the technologies behind secure authentication, watch the next video in the series, “Secure Boot and Secure Download - Part 2: Technologies Behind Embedded Security.”
Secure Boot and Secure Download - Part 2: Technologies Behind Embedded SecurityPart 2 of this video series provides a high-level overview of the technologies in embedded system security. Learn how the cryptographic tools of Maxim’s secure authenticators help verify the authenticity and integrity of firmware distributed to IoT devices. To see a specific application of a cost-effective, hardware-based IoT security solution, watch the next video in the series, “Secure Boot and Secure Download - Part 3: Using the DS28C36.”
Secure Boot and Secure Download - Part 3: Using the DS28C36In this last video of the series, see how the DS28C36, a proven embedded security solution, helps address the threats that plague IoT devices. Learn how this DeepCover® secure authenticator can offload the system microcontroller by performing the heavy computational math required to prove the authenticity and integrity of firmware or data updates.
How to Set Up the MAX32625MBED Using the Mbed Online Development Environment In this video, Venkatesh introduces the MAX32625MBED development platform and shows how to use it with the Mbed™ online development environment. He outlines how to compile and download a simple program and run it on the platform.
How to Set Up an Ultra-Low Power Real-Time Clock II Using the MAX32630FTHR In this video, Mohamed makes an ultra-low power timekeeping circuit that consumes microwatts of power by combining a real-time clock (RTC) peripheral with the Deep Sleep mode of the MAX32630FTHR development platform.
