ESC 2008
The Embedded Systems Conference is coming up soon and it looks to be even better than last year—despite the downturn in the economy. Not even flagging home sales could deter the number of announcements and new products. I’ll be covering a lot more from the show, but here are a number of items that have been made available ahead of time. Also, check out Developers Refine Their Embedded Wares For ESC for more pre-ESC content.

APEC 2007
The Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition (APEC), held February 25 to March 1, 2007 in Anaheim, Calif., saw a number of innovations in the power industry. Electronic Design Analog/Power Editor Don Tuite reports from the conference, where two of the most significant trends were revealed: the extension of PMBus from, a mere chip-to-chip protocol to something that allows interaction for diagnostics and control between server software and the power supplies that make server blades work, and hardware availability for DrMOS power-regulator modules that will power for all future PCs and laptops with Intel chips.

Embedded Systems Conference 2007
Don't expect the same old stuff at the 2007 Embedded Systems Conference, scheduled for April 1-5 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, Calif. This year's show will be virtually bursting at the seams, with many vendors setting up shop outside the main exhibit hall. Vendors seem to be cautiously optimistic, now that issues like the European Union's Restrictions on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) are being addressed and the latest standards-based technologies like Serial ATA (SATA) and PCI Express are commonplace. In fact, this optimism has triggered the return of numerous exhibitors and attracted a host of new vendors.
