On June 23, the 5th International Scientific-Practical Conference “Theoretical and Applied Aspects of Device Development on Microcontrollers and FPGAs” took place remotely via the Google Meet platform. The conference began with opening remarks from Irina Svyd, the Head of the Department of Microprocessor Technologies and Systems, and Sergiy Sakalo, the Dean of the Faculty of IRTZI at the University of Radio Electronics. Participants of the conference then presented their reports and discussed modern requirements for the development of devices based on microcontrollers and FPGAs. All presentations were informative and relevant to the conference’s theme. Prospective directions for the conference’s future development were discussed at the end of the event.

The conference aimed to address the tasks and priority areas of scientific and technical development in the field of device design using microcontrollers and FPGAs, embedded systems, the Internet of Things (IoT), industrial IoT, and more. It sought to find solutions to promote better interaction between the “education-science-industry” chain and foster the development of an innovative ecosystem, scientific research, and technological advancements.

We invite you to participate in the V International Scientific and Practical Conference “Theoretical and Applied Aspects of Device Development on Microcontrollers and FPGAs” MC&FPGA-2023, which is supported by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and will be held from 22 to 23 June 2023 in remote mode on the basis of the Department of Microprocessor Technologies and Systems, Faculty of Information Radio Technology and Technical Information Protection of the Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics, Kharkiv, Ukraine.

The relevance of the conference topics is due to the tendencies of the society’s transition to the technologies of the Industry 4.0 and IIoT, which put forward new requirements for the design and development of electronic devices. In particular, electronic equipment must meet the requirements: operation in real time, availability of universal interfaces, accounting for changes in external conditions, etc.

The 4th International Scientific and Practical Conference “Theoretical and Applied Aspects of Development of Devices on Microcontrollers and FPGAs” was held in remote mode using the Google Meet resource on June 24. The conference was opened by Serhiy Sakalo, dean of the Faculty of Information Radio Technologies and Technical Information Security of the Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics, with welcoming words. Then the participants of the conference presented reports and discussed modern requirements for the development of devices based on microcontrollers and FPGAs. All reports were meaningful and relevant in accordance with the theme of the conference. Based on the results of the work, promising directions for the development of the conference were discussed.

The purpose of the conference: discussion of tasks and priority areas of scientific and technical development in the field of device design on microcontrollers and FPGA; embedded systems; The Internet of Things; industrial Internet of Things and more. Solving the problem of forming a better interaction of chains “education – science – production”. Promoting the development of the innovation ecosystem and the development of scientific research and scientific and technical (experimental) developments.
