As we saw in part-1 of this article, high availability of mission critical systems translates to improved security and redundant boot mechanisms ensures high availability of embedded systems. Redundant boot mechanism – alternatives Once a design decision is made to…
Security of embedded systems The word “security” immediately invokes related terms such as “confidentiality” and “privacy”, while conjuring up mental pictures of malicious hackers! It also brings to mind closely related security parlance, such as password, OTP, encryption etc. However,…
EV charging standards assure electric car (EV) users of compatibility with EV Chargers (EVSEs). The landscape of EV charging standards is fragmented with no single global standard. Regional associations and industry leaders have defined their respective standards so far, which were promoted by regulatory legislations for specific geographies.
Abstract By enabling interoperability, EV Charging standards ensure that EV owners can charge their cars from any compatible EV Charger. The IEC 61851 standard defines Analog Signalling that ensures electrical safety and facilitates basic communication between the EV Charger and…
Abstract Electric car users need to frequently recharge the traction battery, and while doing so they need to be assured of an efficient, safe and interoperable experience, be it AC charging or DC charging. EV Charging standards assure users that…
Abstract Slow charging time, along with other hurdles like range anxiety, has been plaguing EV adoption for many years now. While charging overnight from AC mains supply at home is really slow, Fast DC chargers at the roadside and along…
