The Teensy is a complete USB-based microcontroller development system, in a very small footprint, capable of implementing many types of projects. All programming is done via the USB port. You can program for the Teensy in your favorite program editor using C or you can install the...

For the exponentially growing data traffic worldwide, the data connections within and between microchips are increasingly becoming a bottleneck. Optical connections are an obvious successor, but that requires an adequate nano-sized light source – and this has now been found. Researchers...

A team of researchers from the US and South Korea reported a unique type of NanoLEDs with unprecedented brightness levels, that excess 80,000 cd/m2, and also can operate both as light emitters and light detectors. These new LEDs are about 50nm long and 6nm in diameter. As described in...

A dot matrix RGB LED graphic panel, managed by a FPGA-based controller board that may be separately used as a demoboard, so to evaluate the potential of the on-board Spartan 6. First installment. A FPGA controlled RGB LED MATRIX for Incredible Effects -...

by Lucky @ elektormagazine.com build a LED display clock able to display temperature, humidity and air pressure. He writes: What do you do when you want to design ‘something’ with a vintage or modern display? A clock of course, and this is our first design with RGBDigits:...

ams AG, a multinational semiconductor manufacturer and provider of high performance sensors and analog ICs, had announced the AS7221, an integrated white-tunable smart lighting manager that can be controlled through its network connection by means of simple text-based...

Nichia Corporation, the Japanese chemical engineering and manufacturing company, announced the NVSW319A as a new high-power LED that achieves 164 lm/W at 700mA (5,000K). The 319A is a 3.5x3.5x2.1 mm size LED which is footprint compatible with the old 3.5mm LEDs. The breakdown is...
