Implementing an IoT Edge Device While Minimizing NRE

One designer in a garage, a small startup, small to mid-size companies, and even small groups within large companies with a “startup attitude” are designing IoT edge devices. These designers need to keep non-recurring expense (NRE) down by using affordable design tools that are easy to use to quickly produce results and by minimizing IP and fabrication costs. Their goal is to deliver a functioning device to their stakeholders while spending as little money as
possible to get there. This whitepaper discusses an approach to minimize NRE for IoT edge device implementation.
