Connecting products to the Internet or Ethernet just got easier with Osicom's NET+ARM device. The chip consolidates all the hardware and software subsystems engineers need to add network connectivity to their products in a single device. According to the company, NET+ARM technology will help OEMs shave six months off time to market, cut unit costs by 50%, and simplify design when network-enabling products. Hardware includes Advanced Risc Machines Ltd.'s (ARM's) 32-bit RISC processor and Atmel Corp.'s core logic; software includes Integrated Systems' pSOS real-time operating system and Osicom's networking and web-enabling software, which includes 10/100BaseT-Ethernet and Internet protocols, HTTP and FTP client and server, web browser, mail servers, and a host of drivers and interfaces. Already, several printer OEMs--including NEC, Sharp, Minolta, and Kyocera--have chosen NET+ARM for their next generation of network printers. Osicom Technologies: Product Code 4273

Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
