Recycle Plastic Materials like a few meter leftover 3D Printer material or even Plastic Bottles into Pellets to create new Objects. Do you own a 3D printer like most Maker and DIY'ler?  almost run out of filament? ... Again? What to do with the last few meters? well... Make...

Outfitted with a 2-A, 28-V power switch, the LT8335 2-MHz step-up DC/DC converter from Linear Technology operates from an input of 3 V to 25 V, suitable for applications with input sources ranging from a single-cell lithium-ion battery to automotive inputs. The LT®8335 is a current...

A team of scientists at the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience at Delft University has achieved what may represent a limit in information storage density by creating a memory in which a single bit is represented by a single atom. By Graham Prophet @ edn-europe.com: Specifically, the team...

In this tutorial you will learn how to build a basic development board for Attiny2313 microcontrollers. Did you ever want to make your own development board with microcontroller and you didn´t know how .In this instructable I will show you how to make it.All you need is knowledge in...

This tutorial shows how to interface DC motors using L293D motor driver IC and Arduino. Controlling DC motors with Arduino and L293 -...

Loren Siebert @ ti.com discuss about how to interface signals that have a reference voltage that isn't 0V while preserving the DC information. Many signal paths are direct current (DC)-coupled, and this can lead to challenges when different portions of the signal path require...

Noela and Miguel from Area0x33 made a really helpful tool on hackaday.io. They designed a fully open source hardware USB stick to store your username/password pairs on. MemType uses Atmel ATtiny85 MCU and V-USB to do the communication over USB. V-USB is software-only implementation...

When you see some board designs, especially ones with high speed signals or differential pair signals, then you will notice a lot of zigzag/meander lines on PCB. If you’re wondering whether you can do differential pair routing, then the answer is simply yes by using Meander...
