The Micro RP2040 microcontroller board is a powerful development tool that includes most of the features of the Raspberry Pi Pico in a smaller and more compact form factor. The board is designed for hobbyists, students, and professionals, for a wide range of projects, from building...

We have previously covered many articles on the Seeed Studio XIAO, with the latest on the XIAO ESP32C3 low-power microcontroller board, designed to support Wi-Fi and Bluetooth wireless connectivity. This time, the company has decided to continue its XIAO series with the launch of its...

Arduino has announced its latest product, the GIGA R1 Wi-Fi, a microcontroller board designed for advanced projects that require high computational power, connectivity, and security features. The GIGA R1 Wi-Fi has the same form factor as the popular Arduino Mega and Due boards, offering...

European computer company Olimex Ltd. has created Agon light a budget-friendly microcomputer and microcontroller on one small board. Bernardo Kastrup designed the AgonLight and the Quark firmware was developed by Dean Belfield. The module is the cheapest and fastest 8-bit microcomputer...

Due to the lockdowns that happened in 2020, the industry currently is facing a huge semiconductor shortage. The crisis has led to a major price increase and shortage queue for graphic cards, processors, and other products that require semiconductors. In such times the only solution is...

Earlier this month, NXP Semiconductors announced the launch of its new specialized MCX N microcontrollers, which includes a specialized, NXP-designed NPU for high performance and low power intelligence at the edge. As they call it, NXP MCX N94x and MCX N54x are new to their N series...

Agon Light is a compact low-cost board that is both a microcomputer and an instant-on, BASIC-programmed microcontroller. The fully open-hardware open-source board sits between being a microcontroller development board like an Arduino and a conventional single-board computer like a...

1. Introduction In this project, we will use a PIR sensor to detect motion. Once motion is detected, it will trigger an interrupt and the BleuIO dongle connected to the board will advertise for 25 seconds. You can expand the project based on your needs further. A PIR (passive...
