Hierarchical Processors Target Wearable Tech6th June 2014
Developers delivering a single product have it easy. Pick a system-on-chip (SoC) microcontroller that meets the applicationrequirements, and refine the software until it works as desired. The design task becomes more complex if more than one product is in the mix, especially if the requirements become more demanding. The typical approach is to have a single-core solution across the board with more powerful processors covering the high end.
