by Matej Blagšič @ instructables.com: Recently I attended a course in our University of Electrical Engineering and we were making ourselves a small weather station. It included learning about soldering, sensors and arduino. It was super fun making it with little kids and other...

This project illustrates the use of a microcontroller(MCU) to generate different types of sound. The device uses SST89E54RDA-40-C-PIEMCU, an 8-bit 8051-compatible MCU with embedded SuperFlash memory.The device comes with 24/40KByte of on-chip flash EEPROM program memory which is...

by Martin Cooke @ elektormagazine.com: Over the last few months the Asian manufacturer Shenzhen Xunlong Software has released a number of capable open-spec single board computers with the ‘Orange Pi’ label that are both Linux and Android-ready. Their latest offering is the...

by simpletronic @ instructables.com This is a multi-chapter instructable. I will be describing the making of a short/medium range RF remote-control using the UHF 433Mhz frequency. It´s impossible to setup & adjust a RF transmit-receive link if you are not sure the transmitter is...

by R. Colin Johnson @ eetimes.com: PORTLAND, Ore.—Today Yole Development predicted that power transistors would radically shift from silicon wafers to silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) substrates—to achieve higher power in smaller spaces, according to its GaN and...

The crew from AnalysIR has written up an article on Simple Infrared PWM on Arduino. If you missed part 1 and part 2, be sure to check it out.: In Part 1 of this series, we demonstrated how to send signals using soft or Simple Infrared PWM on Arduino. In our Part 2 post we looked at...

89C2051 Development Stick kit offers an easy way of interfacing 89C2051 compatible MCU’s. Slim design with plug in type approach Voltage regulator on board for stable and regulated supply to the MCU RESET switch for resetting the MCU 0592 MHz Crystal 4K external...

We have for you a measuring device able to measure even small resistance with 0.01 Ohm resolution. UT602 is exactly that device, which you may have missed at development of devices operating with higher currents, where every resistance (lead, connector, joint,…) acts negatively,...
