Peter Isza has designed and produced an amazing electrocardiograph business card and open sourced the design files. MobilECG II is an open source clinical grade Holter ECG. For more information, please visit http://mobilecg.hu An Electrocardiograph business card -...

John Keefe has designed an open source data logger that is able to monitor conductivity, temperature and turbidity of water in lakes and fits inside a plastic bottle. The board is designed to monitor the conductivity (and, possibly, contamination) of water in lakes and streams, with...

Chas from iradan.com discuss about MPLAB Express, the new cloud IDE from Microchip for PIC microcontrollers. He writes: I credit the maker movement with bringing electronics back from the crusty old and lonely electronics hobby back into the main stream. The Arduino is the micro of...

Joshua Yee @ edn.com discuss about LTC4079 250mA Linear Li-Ion Charger IC that can be powered with voltages up to 60V. For charging relatively low capacity batteries, or maintenance charging backup and keep-alive batteries, linear topology battery chargers are valued for their...

The LT8391 is a synchronous 4-switch buck-boost LED controller that regulates LED current from input voltage above, below, or equal to the output voltage. The proprietary peak-buck peak-boost current mode control scheme allows adjustable and synchronizable 150kHz to 650kHz fixed...

Raj from Embedded Lab has posted a new article exploring an easy wireless communication setup between two Arduinos using low-cost ASK RF transmitter and receiver modules. He used a 433MHz Tx/Rx pair with two Arduino boards to illustrate how to construct a low-range wireless...

diy_bloke @ instructables.com has designed an AC PWM dimmer for Arduino: Over 3 years ago, I published a simpel TRIAC AC dimmer for the arduino. That proved to be a very popular design. Yet in spite of the simplicity of the circuit the software needed was a bit complicated as it...

In this tutorial you will learn how to use ATMEGA328 microcontroller as standalone Arduino. This way you can minify your next arduino project. They cost only 2 bucks, can do the same as your Arduino and make your projects extremely small. We will cover the pin layout, how to make...
