Belgian Imec and its subsidiary Holst Centre have developed a health patch which tracks physical and cardiac activity while monitoring bioelectrical impedance. The technology is up for licensing. by Jan Buiting @ elektormagazine.com The health industry has recognized the challenges...

Everlight (New Taipei City, Taiwan) has introduced an ambient light sensor that operates at 550nm with a very low signal calculation failure rate and a high current efficiency. An anticipated application for this device is heart rate signal detection in wearable electronics for the...

This project is an electronic dice. It consists of seven LEDs positioned like a dice which light up to show the number. The leds are controlled by a 74HC4017 decade counter IC. Of this IC six outputs are used to drive the LEDs and a seventh output is used to reset the counter. This...

Circuit Basics writes: In this video, I'll walk you through the steps of setting up a Raspberry Pi from the first boot up without a keyboard or monitor. This process requires only a PC or Mac, an ethernet cable, and access to a network router. How to Setup a Raspberry Pi Without a...

Linear Technology announces the LT6658, a precision voltage reference that incorporates two high current output buffers. The LT®6658 precision 2.5V dual output reference combines the performance of a low drift low noise reference and a linear regulator. Both outputs are ideal for...

Peter Demchenko discuss about a design idea on how to test capacitors in circuit. The electrolytic capacitor is far from being the most reliable electronic component. One of its failure modes – a gradual loss of capacity – can hardly be noticed until power supply malfunction...

Intersil's ISL9238 and ISL9238A add 5V-20V reverse boost for USB On-The-Go charging of portables such as smartphones and headphones; two USB-C buck-boost battery chargers support bidirectional power delivery in ultrabooks, tablets, power banks and other mobile products. by Graham...
