Welcome back to the Embedded Bytes newsletter!
As February comes to a close, I’d like to highlight that the early bird pricing for the Embedded Online Conference goes up March 1st!
Stephane and I have pulled together a fantstic group of engineers to share their knowledge and experience this year with over 50 talks, 7 works, and much more.
Miro Samek is giving a workshop on QP. David Lawrence is talking about Real-Time Rust. Mark Hermeling about Memory Safety. Darwin Sanoy on Agentic Git Workflows. John Taylor’s No Drama Embedded Development. The full schedule goes on and on!
We’re also revamping the website and improving attendee interactions with a new live forum, quiz questions for every session, session summaries, schedule prioritization tools and much more.
Register before March 1 to attend at only $145!

NEW Workshop – AI for Embedded Developers:
This hands-on workshop provides a practical introduction to using AI effectively in embedded software development. Rather than focusing on theory or vendor-specific tools, the course teaches a systems-level approach for turning AI into a reliable firmware teammate, one that understands your codebase, your hardware, and your development constraints.
We’ll explore essential topics such as:
-
Where AI genuinely adds value in embedded development and where it does not
-
Designing reusable AI skills for firmware analysis, debugging, and documentation
-
Using sub-agents to decompose complex embedded engineering tasks
-
Grounding AI with retrieval and vector databases to eliminate hallucinations
-
Integrating AI into real workflows using Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Embedd.it MCU Configurator: Visual Devicetree Generation for Zephyr
If you’re building on Zephyr RTOS or embedded Linux, the Devicetree is unavoidable.
It’s how hardware gets described to the OS. Peripherals, memory maps, clocks, pins, interrupts, all of it lives in .dts files that compile into board-specific headers at build time.
The abstraction is powerful. Write application code once. Change boards by swapping the Devicetree. Rebuild. Your code doesn’t change.
But the Devicetree itself is notoriously difficult to master. The syntax is specific. The semantics are subtle. Required properties vary by peripheral type and binding. Get a clock reference wrong, and your UART baud rate is mysteriously off by 3%. Miss a #address-cells property, and you get cryptic build errors that don’t point to the actual problem.
