Shenzhen Xunlong Software launched Orange Pi AI Stick 2801 neural compute stick last year for $69. It was interesting as an alternative to Intel Neural Compute Stick. But once the documentation and SDK were released a few days later we discovered you could only run demos with the stick...

OmniVision Technologies has released a fully packaged, wafer-level camera module measuring just 0.65x0.65mm and 1.158mm tall. Built around the company’s Guinness World Record breaking image sensor, only 0.575mm by 0.575mm, the OVM6948 CameraCubeChip was developed as a disposable...

If you’re looking to reduce quiescent current and extend the lifetime of your system’s battery, then the TPS62840 is the device for you. At an astonishing 60nA of operating IQ, TPS62840 is the world’s lowest quiescent current DC/DC switching regulator. From IoT to smart meters,...

VersaLogic Corp., the embedded industry's most trusted computer company, has announced a new SWaP-optimized embedded computing system with ECC memory. Named "Harrier", this new embedded computer features the Intel®'s latest 5th generation Apollo Lake Atom™ processors with...

pH meters are scientific instruments used for measuring the activity and concentration of hydrogen-ions in water-based solutions, with the aim of indicating its acidity or alkalinity expressed as pH values. They find application in water & wastewater treatment, pharmaceuticals,...

The electrons movement in electronic components lead to the generation of heat which when beyond certain thresholds, prevents some components from functioning properly and in others could lead to a catastrophic breakdown. For this reason, the topics of ventilation, overheating, and...

Last time we examined how to build  a DIY Reflow Oven controller using the Tiny Reflow Oven Controller v1 by Rocket Stream. However, Rocket Stream recently released the Tiny Reflow Controller V2 and for today’s tutorial, we will attempt to build this second version. The Tiny Reflow...

David Johnson-Davies published another great mini project. It's a Timer based on ATtiny402 and was build to demonstrate the low power sleep mode of the microcontroller. This article describes how to use the new 0-series and 1-series ATtiny microcontrollers in low-power projects, taking...
