Jason surrounded by 8th grade students during their educational trip to Silicon Labs At Silicon Labs, not only will you find seasoned engineers but also middle and high school students who want to learn about electrical engineering. Jason Savage, a Senior Product/Test Engineering Manager, is the person behind the Engineering Mentoring Program. The program is…
2014 summer interns in the Oslo office When the spring semester ends, interns come to our offices around the world to spend their summer with Silicon Labs’ skilled teams and work on exciting projects. Our interns not only have a chance to learn new skills and knowledge but also be involved in real projects. They…
Is engineering a male-dominated field? We had some young and ambitious female student visitors who will drive the future engineering world in the office. The students were first year female students completing a Masters in Electronics and Cybernetics, all from the Ada Project for female engineering students at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology…
Have your spring classes started already? Are you excited about new lectures and learning materials? Engineering students at AGH University of Science and Technology (AGH) in Poland spent last semester learning power management in embedded systems not only by reading textbooks and listening to lectures but also by playing with EFM32 microcontroller (MCU) starter kits…
“I’ve been a designer, a marketer, a general manager, and now CEO, and there is no company I would rather work for. If you love to learn, if you love to innovate, if you love to see the results of your efforts in the hands of customers, you’ll love it at Silicon Labs. We…
Michał Kochanowski Intern at Silicon Labs in Krakow My summer internship project was to port FreeRTOS with tickless idle and different sleep modes on EFM32 microcontrollers (MCUs). FreeRTOS stands for Free Real Time Operating System, which gives a possibility to control time execution and separate MCU resources based on specific tasks. I thought it was…
July might be a month of lazy vacation days for many of us, but at Energy Micro we had 16 students who choose to spend their summer days with us instead. They are engineering students from all over the world who are eager to learn and get real world practice during their internship. For six…
This project was developed by four summer students, Michał, Łukasz, Bartek, Jakub in Krakow, Poland in the last Hack-a-Gecko day (5th, July). Project description: The general idea was to use Giant Gecko with a GPS module to track a walk path. Our goal was to draw a gecko on the narrow streets of Krakow…
Lars at NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) was working on his Master’s thesis on developing a new protocol for measuring sensorimotor synchronization (SMS). As this is an interesting topic, the Energy Micro team was pleased to offer an EFM32 Tiny Gecko STK for his study. Take a look at this short research summary by…
Last Wednesday, we had special visitors from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) at the Energy Micro office in Oslo. The twenty eight female students were from the girl project, Ada, which was established with the aim to recruit more female engineering students and help them complete their studies through various academic and…
