Power consumption is a key consideration when developing nearly all cutting-edge electronics. Whether to prolong the battery life of critical devices for military personnel, maintain low industrial energy costs, or reduce consumption for environmental conservation, achieving a power-efficient device is often of critical importance. While power constraints will always exist for electronics, consumption can be monitored, controlled, and optimized to deliver exceptional efficiency. This is especially true for embedded system development.

Beacon EmbeddedWorks, a Compass Electronics Group company, is now an officially listed High Definition Media Interface (HDMI™) adopter. As an HDMI™ adopter, we expand our SOMs’ display and peripheral capabilities to include HDMI™ integration for our embedded solutions.

When Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) launch a new device, success does not hinge solely on the merit of the idea. Similarly, a memorable design may support differentiation, but is hardly sufficient to secure a high adoption rate. Ultimately, the market accepts or rejects new products contingent upon their functionality. Above all else, consumers expect devices to be capable of executing functions associated with intended use.
