FAQ

• Which Linux is best for embedded development?

  Since each project covers a unique set of requirements and end goals, you will need to communicate them with embedded Linux experts. They will choose the best components and distributions that will fit your project idea. Your team will also need to develop a prototype to check whether your embedded system runs smoothly and fix all the bugs.

• How to build an embedded Linux system?

  To build an effective embedded Linux system, you need to specify your project requirements and component preferences. Depending on those, embedded engineers will choose the tools best suited for your project, including the Yocto Project, the OpenWrt Project, and Buildroot. You can always turn to us for embedded Linux consulting and get some tips on what solution will work for you.

• What is the difference between embedded Linux and RTOS?

  The main differences between embedded Linux and RTOS include the memory sizes they require, the choice of schedular, and CPU resource needed for both of them to operate effectively.  Embedded Linux solutions may require more memory and CPU power, but it is a great option for feature-rich products, while RTOS is more appropriate for low-power devices.

• What platforms do you write embedded software for?

  Embedded Linux application development covers multiple hardware platforms. The Lemberg Solutions engineering team works with NXP, Nvidia, Broadcom, STMicroelectronics, and Texas Instruments. Our electrical engineers can help with component selection, schematics design, and PCB layout development.

• Why embedded Linux?

  Embedded Linux firmware development is perfect for high-performance embedded systems. It provides ready-made drivers for custom-designed hardware and ensures fast and effective system response as well as high-speed data acquisition. Embedded Linux handles resource-intensive tasks and optimizes costs thanks to open-source software.
