Aeroscope – a wireless oscilloscope
https://www.electronics-lab.com/former-agilent-engineers-developing-wireless-oscilloscope/
A pair of former engineers from Agilent Technologies are working on a wireless oscilloscope that will connect to an iOS device for its user interface: The Aeroscope will be a one-channel device where the electronics are in a “pen” form factor. An SMA connector will let you attach mini-grabbers or other probe tips. Analog bandwidth […]
Getting Started with Micro Python
https://www.electronics-lab.com/getting-started-micro-python/
Jacob Beningo has published a tutorial on how to start with Micro Python to build real-time embedded applications. The first step a developer interested in Micro Python must take before diving into a real-time embedded application is to select a supported development kit or microprocessor. The best place for a developer look for a supported development […]

https://www.electronics-lab.com/half-bridge-driver-based-ir2104/
This Half-bridge driver based on IR2104 gate driver IC and N channel Dpak MOSFET , The IR2104 is a high voltage, high speed power MOSFET driver with independent high and low side referenced output channels. HVIC and latch immune CMOS technologies enable ruggedized monolithic construction. The logic input is compatible with standard COMOS or LSTTL […]
How-to use PWM to Generate Analog Voltage in Digital Circuits
https://www.electronics-lab.com/use-pwm-generate-analog-voltage-digital-circuits/
Maurizio @ emcelettronica.com tipped us with his latest article on how to generate analog voltages using a microcontroller. Many times, designers are faced with the need of generating analogue or analog voltage levels in purely digital circuits. Although the market provides today a very broad range of dedicated digital-to-analogue converters, putting such a device in the […]
Getting Started with Atmel ATtiny10
https://www.electronics-lab.com/getting-started-atmel-attiny10/
Mahesh @ electronut.in show us how to program these tiny microcontrollers (ATtiny10) with Atmel Studio 7 and make an RGB led to light. I like Atmel tinyAVRs because they are tiny computers that I can (almost) wrap my head around. The Atmel ATtiny4/5/9/10 are the cheapest in the tinyAVR line, and they come in two packages […]
Temperature Display with NeoPixel Ring Color
https://www.electronics-lab.com/temperature-display-neopixel-ring-color/
This is an OLED temperature display based on ATmega328p along with a NeoPixel led ring to display different colors depending on temperature. This is a small temperature display using a OLED with a NeoPixel Ring around it using MQTT on a ESP8266 and sending data to the on board ATmega328p. It will cycle on a timer […]

https://www.electronics-lab.com/panelizing-gerber-generation-eagle/
Shantam Raj @ hackster.io discuss about how to panelize PCBs and generate Gerbers on Eagle CAD. In this article he shares his experience and common mistake he made in the process. I have been working with Eagle for quite some time but never really got a PCB manufactured. almost all the time i used the […]
Reverse engineering the popular 555 timer chip
https://www.electronics-lab.com/reverse-engineering-popular-555-timer-chip/
Ken Shirriff wrote an article on reverse engineering the 555 timer chip, He writes: This article explains how the LMC555 timer chip works, from the tiny transistors and resistors on the silicon chip, to the functional units such as comparators and current mirrors that make it work. The popular 555 timer integrated circuit is said […]
