E3 Embedded Systems

E3 Embedded Systems E3 Embedded Systems, LLC is based in Augusta, Georgia. We designed the PIEP for Engineers, Enthusiasts (Hobbyists) and Education (hence E3).

Our patent pending Processor Independent Embedded Platform (PIEP) allows embedded solution developers to prototype and test their designs quickly and easily. PRODUCTS
E3's Processor Independent Embedded Platform (PIEP) is a collection of products that fall into three categories: (1) The E3 Motherboard, (2) Processor Boards and (3) Peripheral Boards. These groups can use our products to more quickl

y design, prototype and test their embedded solutions (at a reduced cost). (1) The E3 Motherboard – The heart of the Processor Independent Embedded Platform. The E3 motherboard accepts all E3 processor boards and all of E3's stackable and pluggable peripherals. (2) E3 Processor Boards – We currently offer three processor boards - ARM, Freescale and PIC (with more on the way). Our customers can build their embedded solutions with the architecture of their choice. (3) E3 Peripheral Boards – We will have over 20 peripherals at launch and are planning many more. End-users can seamlessly integrate these peripherals with the motherboard with no specialty tools or soldering required.

DIFFERENTIATORS
E3’s PIEP is differentiated in a number of ways. The PIEP permits the use of a wide array of different microcontrollers, is optimized for size and functionality, and is a cost-effective alternative to existing technologies. (1) Processor Independence – Our motherboard does not contain a processor. Rather, we have processor boards that plug into or snap into the motherboard. (2) Form Factor – Our 4-inch by 4-inch motherboard has 12 Stackable Peripheral Interface Ports (SPIPs) where our peripherals can be plugged into the motherboard. Our peripherals can be stacked on top of other peripherals (3 per SPIP). Conceivably, one could stack 36 peripherals on a single motherboard. (3) Ease of Use – Wire cutters and a small screw driver are the only tools you must have in order to use the PIEP. (4) Connectivity – We plan to ship products with pre-crimped leads, wires and connectors. Also, you can interface with external hardware using the optional terminal board and tether peripherals with the remote mount kit. (5) Flexibility – Peripherals can be plugged-into multiple locations and remotely mounting peripherals can easily be achieved. (6) Cost Advantages – Considering the benefits listed here, substantial cost-savings can be achieved (i.e. one system for all your needs) and the amount of time creating embedded solutions can be greatly reduced. (7) Compatibility – We plan to make our product compatible with a wide array of existing industry components offered by other manufacturers. In other words, an end-user’s existing embedded devices (components in his or her toolbox) will work with the PIEP platform, bi-directionally. A perfect example of this is the Arduino Shield Adapter and the BeagleBone Adapter (coming soon).

We are very excited to announce that E3 Embedded and our hardware (the Processor Independent Embedded Platform or PIEP) will be at the 2017 EMBEDDED SYSTEMS CONFERENCE in San Jose, CA (http://escsiliconvalley.com - ). The conference Expo will be open December 6 and 7 from 10 AM - 4 PM. Come visit us at booth 1432. We will be at the showcase with Koliada. Koliada has developed an incredible embedded development SDK and they plan to showcase it using PIEP. Come visit us on Wednesday or Thursday at booth 1432 to see Koliada ES and the E3 platform in action.

Over the last decade I have owned most of the popular embedded electronics development boards. These boards ranged from Parallax Propeller based to Microchip’s popular PIC lineup, and everything in-between including more than a few dozen Atmel AVR based Arduino boards. While Arduino and the Raspberr…

The word is spreading. Bill Wong with electronicdesign.com also published an article about E3 and the PIEP (that's huge). Thousands of people follow Bill and some of them are already creating their own posts based on his. Thanks Bill and Electronic Design!

Ok. You have an embedded project in mind. Enhancements come to mind so the peripheral complement is likely to change. The problem with the last project was the development board had limited peripheral interface hardware and it was hard to add it. There were cables all over the place. It would be nic…

Brace Yourselves... we completely agree. Charles Gantt (blogger/maker extraordinaire) recently posted a great 'teaser' article on The Makers Workbench and on his community blog on element14. You can view the posts here:

He is planning a more in-depth review the day our KickStarter launches (FRIDAY). Thanks Charles for the kind words and your vote of confidence!

As the old adage goes, every Electronic Engineer is a maker, but not all makers are Electronic Engineers. Because of this fact, many Makers tend to adopt a single development board and tool chain as it is just too expensive to be able to afford a completely different setup for each and every process…
