For the past week we have been at Embedded World showcasing some great demos using mbed on the ARM stand. We had two main themes at this years show for mbed - Connecting MCUs to the Cloud and the new mbed NXP LPC11U24 Microcontroller .

We've just seen RS have announced the first in a new "Synergy" range of mbed application breakout boards!
One of the applications they have supported is a high-quality audio DAC that can connect to the mbed LPC1768's I2S port:

Universal Serial Bus (USB) was a revolution for device communication, and has long become the standard of choice for connecting devices to desktop, mobile and embedded computing platforms. It has made adding new devices to a system simple and reliable, whilst also driving innovation in what devices can be developed. Brilliant!
USB has been so successful that using it for connectivity is no longer a feature, but a requirement. So why do so many embedded devices continue to be developed like it is the 90's?!

Rob Toulson and Tim Wilmshurst, two experts in the field and both university lecturers, have just submitted the final copy of their new textbook to be published!
