Embedded Device Observability data collected via Bluetooth Low Energy - Blecon and Memfault demo

In this demo we show an example of how Memfault's Observability solution can work seamlessly with Blecon's Bluetooth technology to get devices connected and sending data to the cloud with ease. In this case the device is running a Nordic nRF52.

Diving into JTAG - BSDL (Part 4)

In the previous article of this series, we briefly touched on how.bsd files written in Boundary Scan Description Language (BSDL) describe the structure of the boundary scan chain and the instruction set. In this article, we will examine this language’s syntax more closely before seeing how.bsd files are leveraged in JTAG testing in the next article.

Diving into JTAG - Debugging (Part 3)

In the third installment of this JTAG deep dive series, we will talk in-depth about JTAG Boundary-Scan, a method used to test interconnects on PCBs and internal IC sub-blocks. It is defined in the IEEE 1149.1 standard. I recommend reading Part 1 & Part 2 of the series to get a good background on debugging with JTAG before jumping into this one!

Differences Between ELF-32 and ELF-64

Have you ever wondered if ELF is portable between 32-bit and 64-bit targets? Probably not, but this might be a common scenario for you if you work on 32-bit embedded devices but use a 64-bit host. Or maybe you’ve developed tooling for 32-bit MCUs and are transitioning to working on 64-bit targets. The ELF object file format is one of the most commonly used today. Most build systems provide an output to this format, and ELF is commonly used to output coredumps.

Introducing Device Vitals

Memfault would like to introduce you to Device Vitals. To ensure that your product maintains its quality even after it is launched, it is crucial to monitor three key indicators for your devices in the field: stability, connectivity, and battery life. By collecting Device Vitals, you can have access to valuable data that helps you understand the overall health of your fleet and the quality of your product.

How to get Memfault Device Vitals up and running on an MCU (ESP32) - Integration Walkthrough

In this video Memfault Field CTO Thomas will walk you through each step to get your MCU based device integrated on Memfault and reporting crash data and our newly released, Device Vitals into Memfault. This walk through is using an ESP32 based device but the same principles can be applied to any MCU and we have lots of guidance available for different chipsets in our technical documentation.
