The MaxProLogic is the perfect FPGA project board for the student and hobbyist. The MaxProLogic is an FPGA development board that is designed to be user friendly and a great introduction into digital design for anyone. The core of the MaxProLogic is the Altera MAX10 FPGA. This powerful...

Small breadboard friendly development board using the SiFive FE310 RISC-V Microcontroller. MCU – SiFive Freedom E310 (FE310) 32-bit RV32IMAC processor @ up to 320+ MHz (1.61 DMIPS/MHz) Storage - 128-Mbit SPI flash (ISSI IS25LP128) Expansion - 2x 14-pin headers with JTAG,...

A smartwatch with fall and location detection, reminders and more, designed to help you or your loved one with Alzheimer's! When I saw Infineon’s Sensor Hub Nano, it appeared to be a good candidate in such a project, because of its very small size and BLE capabilities. With the...

A new vacuum tube which puts vacuum fluorescent display technology to practical use is in distribution from RS Components. Nutube, similar to a conventional vacuum tube, has an anode grid filament structure, and operates exactly as a triode vacuum tube. Also similar to a vacuum tube,...

One of the limiting factors for the computing power of processors is the operating temperature. A research team led by Dr. Wolfram Steller, Dr. Hermann Oppermann, and Dr. Jessika Kleff from the Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration IZM, has developed a new as well as...

danman @ blog.danman.eu build a OLED display NTP clock and document his process on his blog: As a first project with my new ESP32 module with OLED display I chose to build OLED clock. I thought I’ll just find some existing code, upload it and it’s done. There are a few such...

8 Digit serial numerical display shield for Arduino has been designed for various applications like digital clock, stop watch, score display, temperature meter, frequency counter, digital meters etc. The circuit uses popular MAX7219 IC and two common cathode 0.5inch red seven segment...

Henrik Forstén has a nice build log on his newest version of this homemade 6 GHz FMCW radar: Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar works by transmitting a chirp which frequency changes linearly with time. This chirp is then radiated with the antenna, reflected from the...
