Muris @ elektronika.ba tipped us with his latest project. It's a revision of their single channel loop detector published some time ago and it come with some nice features. There are two PCB versions available, one is a standalone version (PCB v1.2) with DIPs and relays on board and...

Microchip recently developed a precision power-and-energy-monitoring chip - PAC1934. The PAC1934 is a four channel power/energy monitor with current sensor amplifier and bus voltage monitors that feed high-resolution ADC. It works in conjunction with a Microchip software driver that is...

Author: Maurizio Di Paolo Emilio IkaScope is a wireless oscilloscope probe that allows to observe the change of electrical signals over time. The probe is a handheld device, portable and fits perfectly in the hand and pocket. By using high-speed Wi-Fi connection, IkaScope wireless...

For kids and adults with food allergies, having meals from restaurants or hotels can sometimes be very risky. Even when ultimate care is taken, freshly prepared meals can accidentally become cross-contaminated with an offending food and trigger an allergic reaction. Every year many...

The concept of this board is to build an open, very versatile frequency counter, so it can be used to measure a wide variety of signals. It is designed to be customizable in every possible way. Freq_LF_HF v1.0 board uses the famous AVR microcontroler Atmega328p-AU. This is not the...

Juan Antonio Rubia Mena tipped us with his DIY logic analyzer based on PIC18F2525 @ 32 Mhz. He writes: One of the most useful tools for micro-controller design is the logic analyzer. You can find one for every budget or performance, but lately those based in USB connection to PC have...

This project will show how to use your OpenScope MZ in LabVIEW. by Austin Stanton @ hackster.io: In this tutorial, we will go over how to connect an OpenScope MZ to LabVIEW. To do so, I will be walking you through some example VIs that I made. These examples allow you to access the...

e-Mosquito is a fully autonomous device pre-programmed to “bite” one’s skin at various times during the day to monitor blood glucose levels. [via] The worst part of getting a shot or having your blood drawn is certainly the anticipation. As reported on IEEE Spectrum,...
