Electronic Products takes a look back at some of the most-read articles of 2022. The IoT, which encompasses a variety of applications and other industry trends like smart cities and Industry 4.0, captured the attention of our readers last year. That’s no real big surprise, considering it is a huge market with a forecast of 23.6 billion connections by 2026, according to ABI Research.
Two of the top 10 articles address IoT development boards and development kits. Clearly, designers are looking for ways to speed up how they test-drive new technologies and their devices.
Designers also are looking for guidance across a variety of applications, from deploying sensors in smart cities to improving safety in xEV traction inverter systems. Also of interest are microprocessors/microcontrollers and motor control.
Here’s our top 10 most popular articles posted in 2022, based on page views.
