Arduino Tutorial: Using a Servo SG90 with Arduino
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-tutorial-using-a-servo-sg90-with-arduino/
educ8s.tv shows us how to use a servo motor with Arduino UNO: A Servo is a small device that has an output shaft. This shaft can be positioned to specific angular positions by sending the servo a coded signal. That’s why we need the Arduino, in oder to send that signal to the servo. Servos […]
LTC3106 – 300mA Low Voltage Buck-Boost Converter
https://www.electronics-lab.com/46786-2/
The LTC3106 is a highly integrated, 1.6μA quiescent current 300mV startup buck-boost DC/DC converter with PowerPath management, optimized for multisource, low power systems. The LTC3106 is ideal for powering low power wireless sensors from rechargeable or primary batteries supplemented by energy harvesting. If the primary power source is unavailable, the LTC3106 seamlessly switches to the […]
DIY-Thermocam – an open-source, do-it-yourself thermographic camera
https://www.electronics-lab.com/diy-thermocam/
Max Ritter has pointed us to his latest project, the DIY-Thermocam, a open source thermal imager based on FLIR thermal sensor. The results are awesome! The device is based on the popular FLIR Lepton thermal sensor and uses a Teensy 3.2 mikrocontroller to display live thermal images on a nice 3.2 inch touch screen. The aim […]

Markus Hirsch is working on a ESP8266 weather display using an AVR mcu and an OLED display: This is a little weather monitor. It has a 2.2″ color display and is powered by an AVR and the ESP8266. The AVR controles the display. The ESP has a custom firmware written in the Arduino IDE and […]
CSI Premier 75W and Hakko 936 Solder Station Teardowns
https://www.electronics-lab.com/csi-premier-75w-and-hakko-936-solder-station-teardowns/
Todd Harrison @ toddfun.com did the teardown of the CSI 75W solder station as well as the Hakko 936: The Hakko of course had all analog circuits using operational amplifiers and potentiometers as well as a temperature sensor in the iron tip to signal back to a triac chip controller which would trigger the triac to […]

Making circuit boards with DLP projector
https://www.electronics-lab.com/making-circuit-boards-with-dlp-projector/
Nuri ERGİNER managed to create his own PCBs using a DLP projector and photo-resist dry film. Every Maker like me dream a PCB printer which can quickly and precisely convert our electronic idea into a psychical circuit board. I know there are plenty of project going on the subject. (see the end of the article) […]
Nixie Tube Energy Meter
https://www.electronics-lab.com/46760-2/
John Whittington decided to build a Nixie tube energy meter to measure his house power consumption. An Arduino would be the microcontroller but I wanted the meter to provide some form of data stream for a web based energy history. To make it an IoT, I a paired ESP8266 with it. I used both together […]
Teensy 3.2: A first look at the powerful Arduino compatible board
https://www.electronics-lab.com/teensy-3-2-a-first-look-at-the-powerful-arduino-compatible-board/
educ8s.tv reviews the Teensy 3.2 Arduino compatible board and examines if it’s compatible with his existing sketches. If you need a small but powerful Arduino board, Teesy 3.2 is the best board available today. In this video we take a first look at Teensy 3.2 board, we set it up and we run the blink […]
