We asked engineers what would make finding the right development kit easier. See what they said.
As design complexity continues to increase, some of the challenges engineers face include higher integration and layers of software. Avnet recently completed a survey of design team leaders, managers and engineers to find out how they use development kits to help navigate today’s design challenges.
Our results show a trend toward combining multiple kits, leveraging bundled software, and how using off-the-shelf hardware and software in production provides faster time to market.
Read the latest issue of What’s Next to see the results.
