Image sensors are the crucial part of various analog and digital electronic devices such as digital cameras, webcams, camera phones, camera modules, optical mouse devices, medical applications, night vision cameras, thermal cameras, barcode scanners, radar, sonar, and many others. An...

We have seen various SBCs being released since late 2020 to 2021, however, 10 of these SBCs will be summarized alphabetically below. Arduino Yun Rev 2 The Yún rev. 2 is a reboot of its original, MIPS-based Arduino Yun, with the power of a Linux based system that enables advanced...

In modern compact electronic circuits, there are several components on a confined PCB area, and so, the electromagnetic effects induced from one component may affect the surrounding components. This disturbance is known as Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). The source of the radiation...

Guangdong-based electronics manufacturer, MeLe has been in the news a couple of times over the years for a number of their tiny but powerful intel mini processors-based desktop PCs. The company recently shared the beginning of sales of one of their latest creations; the MeLe Quieter 2, a...

Linear voltage regulators are used to maintaining a steady output voltage. They are step-down converters where the input voltage is always higher than the output voltage. The output voltage can be adjusted by external resistors. 78xx series is a very popular linear voltage regulator...

We saw BOMIST first in late 2017. With a new version re-written from scratch being released by the end of 2020, we are revisiting it now. Although at first sight, we can spot quite a few similarities in regards to the UI, there is now more features (and very useful ones), better user...

DFRobot Gravity: Speech Synthesis Module converts lines of code into speech and supports both English and Chinese languages. This module operates from 3.3V to 5V power supply range, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range, <50mA operating current, and 5%RH to 85%RH operating...

Arduino recently announced their Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect board, which is a port of the latest Raspberry Pi Pico. Along with it, they’ve also decided to port the Arduino core, bringing the Arduino IDE, libraries, and more to the Raspberry Pi Pico. Even though the official port is...
