CodeFusion Studio System Planner enables easy-to-use resource allocation in heterogeneous architectures and optimizes code generation for improved efficiencyThe Data Provenance Software Development solution ensures data trust and traceability for customers across the stack

WILMINGTON, Mass., March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Analog Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADI), a global semiconductor leader, today unveiled an expanded version of its developer-centric offerings with new solutions to drive more efficiency and security for developers and provide increased customer value. The CodeFusion Studio System Planner helps customers deliver innovations for the Intelligent Edge with enhanced capabilities and reduced time-to-market. The new Data Provenance Software Development solution establishes a trust framework for data created at the Intelligent Edge, ensuring the data remains trustworthy and preserves its fidelity from creation to consumption or storage. Early access kits and software downloads for the solution will be available through https://developer.analog.com/ on April 25.

“The work required of embedded developers is more complicated than ever, from increasingly complex processors to new challenges presented by multiple development teams and a more challenging security environment,” said Rob Oshana, Senior Vice President of the Software and Digital Platforms group at ADI. “We have heard from customers time and again they want to be able to more quickly and easily manage their system design, allocate resources, quickly show proof-of-concept, and do it with data integrity at the edge, all of which inspired this expanded CodeFusion Studio System Planner and Data Provenance Software Development solution offerings.”

In recent years, embedded devices have exponentially increased processing speed, core count, functionality, and complexity – delivering reduced cost and space, but increasing the complexity of software development pipelines. Legacy developer tools often lack the flexibility and customization required to integrate into these pipelines and the established code bases central to effective modern system design. ADI’s CodeFusion Studio System Planner solves many of these project creation and resource partitioning challenges on complex, heterogeneous devices.

Using a permissibly licensed, open-source architecture, ADI’s CodeFusion Studio System Planner enables flexible project creation across multiple cores and graphical resource allocation of memory and peripherals. The offering also includes config tools that are aware of the real-time operating system or firmware platform being used on a given core, exposing context-aware config settings for a peripheral or memory block assigned to a core. With added insight into system performance and accessible, open-source tools to improve resource allocation, developers will have greater ability to efficiently optimize their designs.

Additionally, System Planner enables developers to generate the code they need via a plugin-based project creation system. This system gives developers as much flexibility as possible while benefiting from a common set of configuration tools. A set of plugins for common firmware platforms – Zephyr RTOS, ADI’s SDK, etc. – will be provided out of the box, but customers are free to duplicate and modify those project creation and config plugins for their requirements. The plugin system makes use of a templating engine beneath the surface. Static files are modified by replacing strings in specific locations, and the code generation logic can be augmented with JavaScript or TypeScript functions.

Finally, System Planner provides a graphical utility to partition memory resources, assigning partitions to one or more cores. This utility aims to help customers generate linker scripts or Device Tree memory overlay files. Peripheral blocks can also be graphically assigned to a core, with RTOS-aware config settings.

In addition to the CodeFusion Studio System Planner, ADI is also announcing an upgraded ADI Assure Trusted Edge Security Architecture with the early access release of the company’s first Data Provenance Software Development solution ensuring data trust and traceability for customers across its life cycle.

The new Data Provenance solution establishes a trust framework for signal chain data, ensuring that data created at the Intelligent Edge retains its integrity, authenticity, and preserves its fidelity as it moves through the system. The Data provenance solution allows appending secure metadata, enhancing the trust and fidelity of the generated data; fidelity comes from the addition of information about the history of the data across its journey. Trust is established by a strong cryptographic proof, allowing users to assess the authenticity and integrity of their data across complex networks more easily, whether it’s being used for simple dashboard displays or sophisticated machine learning models.

By establishing end-to-end trust and enhancing data fidelity, Data Provenance leads to more accurate and safe model outputs and greater decision-making precision. The immediate applications include building more reliable algorithms or AI models that operate on authentic, high-quality data, extracting verified sensor insights to improve understanding of signal chain outputs and operational reliability, simply reducing data waste, and rendering the proof of integrity and authenticity easier.

“Not only are we meeting customer needs to simplify development tools and support data trust today, but we are also working towards additional solutions to support the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning models into embedded systems,” said Oshana. “Stay tuned in the months ahead for additional extensions to the CodeFusion Studio platform as we empower customers to more easily deliver products with embedded intelligence.”

In HelloNation, Electrical Expert Sean McGahy Breaks Down How a Whole Home Surge Protector Works

Published

By

The Article Explains How This Type of System Protects a Home’s Electronics From Power Surges Throughout the Day.

WAKE FOREST, N.C., Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What does a whole home surge protector do? A HelloNation article answers that question and explains how this type of device defends a home’s wiring and electronics from voltage spikes.

The article explains that many power surges happen quietly throughout the day, often without anyone noticing. Large appliances such as air conditioners and refrigerators create small voltage spikes every time they cycle on and off.

According to the article, a whole home surge protector is installed directly at the electrical panel, where it can monitor voltage across the entire house. Unlike a power strip, which protects a single outlet, this device works at the source.

The article notes that modern homes rely on sensitive electronics, including smart thermostats, entertainment systems, and connected appliances. Repeated voltage fluctuations can damage this circuitry over time, even when a homeowner never notices it happening.

External surges from lightning strikes or utility grid fluctuations tend to be more severe than everyday cycling surges, the article explains. A whole home system is designed to respond quickly and redirect excess voltage away from a home’s circuits.

Installation is typically straightforward for a licensed electrician and does not usually require major changes to existing wiring, the article states. Many systems include indicators that let homeowners confirm the device is functioning properly.

The article points out that surge protectors are rated by how much energy they can absorb, often measured in joules. Homes with more electronics generally benefit from a protector with a higher rating.

A protector does not last forever, the article notes. Absorbing a large surge can wear down its internal components, even if the device still looks functional. Periodic testing by an electrician can confirm the system is still working as intended.

Electrical Expert Sean McGahy of Zar Electric is featured in the article. The article explains how periodic testing can confirm that a whole home surge protector is still providing the level of protection it was designed for.

The article adds that surge protection works best as one part of a broader approach to electrical safety. Homes should still have properly functioning breakers, updated wiring, and routine inspections alongside this added layer of defense.

Homes in areas prone to storms or frequent power fluctuations may see added value from this protection, the article notes. New construction offers a convenient time to add it, though retrofitting an existing home is described as achievable and usually quick.

The article notes that cost varies depending on the type of system installed and the complexity of a home’s existing electrical setup. Many homeowners view the expense as reasonable compared to the potential cost of replacing damaged electronics after a serious surge event.

Some insurance providers take note of these systems when evaluating a home’s overall risk profile, the article adds, though policies vary from carrier to carrier. This is described as one more reason homeowners weigh the value of this type of protection.

The article closes by noting that deciding whether this protection makes sense often comes down to a home’s electronics, its location, and a homeowner’s comfort level with risk. A licensed electrician can walk through these considerations before a final decision is made.

In HelloNation, Building Materials Expert Andy Maetzold Explains How Freeze-Thaw Cycles Affect Minnesota Homes

Published

on

By

The Article Shows How Moisture, Temperature Swings, and Hail Shape Material Choices for Roofs, Windows, Walls, and Decks.

WACONIA, Minn., Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — How do freeze-thaw cycles damage a home in Minnesota? The answer appears in a HelloNation article that was newly published for homeowners choosing building materials for a cold climate. The article features insights from Building Materials Expert Andy Maetzold, a fourth-generation member of the family behind Mayer Lumber.

The HelloNation article explains that a Minnesota home faces a wider range of weather than houses in most of the country. Below-zero nights, humid summers, and hailstorms all test the products used to build and repair it.

According to the article, moisture often does more harm than cold by itself. Water seeps into small gaps, freezes overnight, and expands, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles slowly push joints and seams apart.

The article also notes that large temperature swings make many products expand in summer and shrink in deep cold. Materials installed without room to move can buckle, crack, or pull loose from their fasteners.

The roof takes more of this stress than any other part of the house, the article explains. Asphalt shingles remain the most common choice because they are affordable and familiar to most roofing crews. In areas that see hail, many homeowners look at impact-resistant shingles that earn a Class 4 rating.

The article points out that some insurance companies offer lower premiums for Class 4 roofs, though discount rules vary by insurer. Metal roofing is another option that sheds snow quickly, and snow guards are often added above doors and walkways.

Ice dams get special attention in the piece. The article explains that no shingle stops them alone, because the real cause is warm air leaking into the attic and melting snow on the upper roof. Air sealing, attic insulation, and steady ventilation deal with that heat directly.

Cold-climate building codes also call for an ice barrier membrane under the shingles along the eaves, according to the article. This layer helps keep backed-up water away from the roof deck and the ceilings below.

For windows, the article points readers to the National Fenestration Rating Council label and its U-factor, which measures how easily heat passes through the whole unit. A lower number means better insulation and a warmer glass surface on a January night.

The article compares double-pane windows with triple-pane units, which cut heat loss further but cost and weigh more. It also notes that vinyl and fiberglass frames insulate well, while aluminum frames need a thermal break to suit Minnesota winters.

Walls, decks, and lumber are covered as well. The article explains that house wrap and flashing protect wall framing from water, and that wood touching concrete or soil generally needs pressure treatment.

The insights from Building Materials Expert Andy Maetzold also address cost. The article encourages comparing the full life of a product rather than the purchase price alone, since a cheaper material that needs frequent repairs can cost more over 20 or 30 years.

Finally, the article advises checking with local building officials about code rules. It also stresses following manufacturer installation instructions, since many warranties depend on them.
