Microchip releases custom firmware for embedded controllers
Microchip has announced the release of custom-designed firmware for its MEC1723 Embedded Controller (EC), specifically tailored to support NVIDIA DGX Spark personal AI supercomputers. The software is designed to optimise the MEC1723 EC’s capabilities for system management of AI workloads on the NVIDIA DGX platform.
Embedded controllers play an important role in managing power sequencing, alerts and system-level energy regulation. In this application, the MEC1723 EC goes a step further to also manage critical firmware operations.
Microchip’s MEC embedded controllers are designed to support the next generation of notebook and desktop applications across industrial, data centre and consumer markets. These controllers provide advanced system management, security features and efficient power management, making them suitable for today’s high-performance computing needs.
