The RP2350 is a dual-core microcontroller featuring two ARM Cortex M33 and two Hazard3 RISC-V processors, with a selectable boot option for any two cores. It operates at 150 MHz, has 520 kB SRAM in 10 banks, and includes peripherals like two UARTs, two SPI controllers, two I2C...

Microchip Technology has released a new family of Digital Signal Controllers (DSCs) called dsPIC33A. These controllers are designed for time-constrained systems that need fast and precise control. The DSCs are built with a 32-bit architecture with a double-precision floating-point unit...

The Arduino Nano and its many clones are staples in the world of development boards, often found within arm's reach of any electronics enthusiast. However, even the compact Nano can take up valuable space on solderless breadboards during prototyping. To address this, [Albert van Dalen]...

Apple has recently released a beta version of Embedded Swift programming language that is said to work with ESP32-C6, Pi RP2040, STM32F7, and nRF52840 microcontrollers. Additionally, the company has also developed example codes for matter protocol based on ESP-IDF and ESP-Matter SDKs...

JieLi Technology AC6329C4 is a 35 cents MCU that also has support for Bluetooth 5.0, it also has several I/Os, ADC, PWM, and other features. The MCU is very similar to the CH32V003 MCU in terms of cost but the main difference is that the CH32V003 does not have Bluetooth support but the...

Making Devices NightUSB is a tiny PIC18F14K50 powered dev board designed mainly to experiment with the USB capabilities of the Microchip PIC18F family of controllers. The PIC18F14K50 is an 8-bit PIC with a single core running at up to 48MHz,  it also includes 512B of static RAM (SRAM)...

Adafruit just announced Adafruit CH552 QT Py and this board ranks in the top part of my weird tech list. The MCU used in this is a WinChipHead (WCH) CH552 has an E8051 Core. with 16 kilobytes of flash memory but only about 1.25 kilobytes of RAM, and the most weird thing about this it...

Waveshare ESP32-S3-Matrix Dev Board is an ESP32-S3-based development board that features an 8×8 addressable RGB LED Matrix(64 LEDs in total), 15 usable GPIO pins, and a 9-axis attitude sensor that can be used for robotics and motion control applications. In addition to that it is...
