GPS technology plays an important role in our everyday life. From easy human navigation to navigation of aircraft, it helps solving different location-related problems. However, aside from providing location details, the NMEA data obtained from satellites by GPS modules also carry...

We've done quite a number of tutorials on the use of several displays with Arduino boards and today we will add another tutorial to that list. We will look at the ILI9325 based 2.8" touchscreen display shown below and how it can be used with the Arduino to deliver a better user...

This is another boost DC-DC Converter that provides 48V DC output from 24V DC input with a load current of up to 1.5A. The board is very small. Booster is based on LM2588 IC from Texas Instruments. The LM2588 regulator integrated circuit is specifically designed for fly-back, step-up...

This is another DC-DC boost converter that provides 36V DC output from 24V DC input with load current up-to 2A. The board is very small. Switch-mode converter is based on LM2588 IC from Texas Instruments. The LM2588 regulator integrated circuit specifically designed for fly-back,...

Display technology is constantly approving, from the days of the 16x2 LCD to today of the various cool displays like the E-paper and OLED displays, efforts keep going to make them even better, with more colors and lower power consumption among other features. This makes them the perfect...

The ESP8266 WiFi module and development boards based on it, enable makers to add an extra layer of intelligence, usefulness, value, and coolness to their creations as it provides an easy and cheap way to build IoT projects. Today's tutorial will center around sending an email using the...

While IoT is awesome, there are situations where we do not necessarily want to connect the devices to the internet but connect them together. It could be a need for a local network of sensors to monitor certain parameters on a farm for instance. This kind of project will involve a base...

This is another Arduino Nano shield which can drive a Brushed DC Motor in both directions with PWM signal for speed control and it also includes current trip feature. Project is based on DRV8870 IC which can handle current up to 3.6Amps, The shield also includes an IR sensor and...
