Software Consultant
Microcode leads software groups in design and management –
Training developers to thing in Object-Oriented methodology and implement it together.
Acquiring new technologies and apply them in the projects. Build infrastructure and teams.
Control
Control & automation is characterized as a Real-Time software.
Although small, the software is rich in content and algorithm.
We develop on small low-memory devices as well as on power processors -
Texas-Instruments, Freescale, Tensilica, Atmel, Microchip, STM and more.
Modem control using multiple DSPs is such a project.
Embedded Linux
The linux popularity is rocketing – low cost processors with free software.
It is a complete PC on a 3 components – A processor, a memory and a SD-card.
A made hardware (SOM) is so inexpensive that it is used as-is in the final products.
Microcode developed a Wireless Gateway using off-the-shelf cards –
Beagle-Bone-Black (Texas Instruments) and Raspberry Pi (Broadcom).
Wireless communication
Adding a wireless connectivity to an embedded product is easy – Wifi, Bluetooth.
Software deals with embedded stack as well as remote mobile application (android).
Wifi AC, Wifi Direct, and Wifi AdHoc were used in various projects.
Texas Instruments Simple-Link CC3200 is such a hardware component.
Internet-of-Things (IoT)
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is the leading sensor connectivity in the consumer market.
BLE devices can operate for months on a coin battery.
It is small and cheap but opens a huge range of consumer applications.
We used Texas Instrument CC2650 has human (mobile) tracking and identification.
Tcp/Ip communication
Network communication is everywhere. It involves software and hardware.
Expertise in IP protocols is a close companion to software architecture.
Among the projects are IP-Switch, Power-Line-Communication, Wifi Access.
Radio Transceivers
Microcode participated in Wimax/LTE development for the cellular market.
The software deals with RF operation, calibration and MAC layer communication.
It involved close collaboration with RF, Modem, and System developers.
