Researchers from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore build a new type of flexible supercapacitor that aims to be used in wearables and other portable electronics such as T-shirts charging mobile phones. The new type of capacitor is made with out-of-plane wavy structures of...

ePaper displays  (EPDs) are becoming a trend in application, just like the display used in Amazon Kindle,  for their low power consumption due to the  to the underlying ‘bistable’ display technology. These displays can continue to show information without any power at all. It is...

Michael Dunn @ edn.com did a quick tear-down of his drone. The main processor is an ST STM32F031K6, an ARM Cortex-M0 with the usual cadre of peripherals, as well as a motor-control block (the leftmost large chip in Figure 2). Although at the lower end of the ARM continuum, it’s...

This compact board will help you to drive 4 Wheel Drive Robots, each axis can handle a load current up to 3 Amps and supply 12V – 48 V DC. Board requires two PWM and Dir. signals for full 4WD operations, mainly differential steering for taking turns left or right or complete 360...

T A Babu @ edn.com has a design idea of a led controller with some nice features: The key features of this Design Idea are: Soft switch on/off operation Zero current drain in sleep mode Two level dimming Low battery protection Simple controller based on CMOS 4017...

Graham Prophet @ eedesignnewseurope.com discuss about two new MEMS accelerometers from Analog Devices: Analog Devices (ADI) has added two devices to its low noise, low drift, low power, three-axis MEMS accelerometers. The low noise performance over high frequencies provided by the...

Boris Landoni @ open-electronics.org documents his UV index detector. It measures solar radiation and visualizes the corresponding value on the integrated display of a miniaturized Arduino, in order to tell us when to expose ourselves to the sun… Open Source UV Index Detector -...
