HardiqV @ instructables.com build an alternative board to Arduino using STM 32 series of mcus. We love the Arduino board and it's prototyping platform . It makes the complete prototyping process smooth and enjoying with the help of it's add on such as Arduino IDE and a huge community...

MCUs are called microcontrollers because they embed a CPU, memory and I/O units in one package. Apparently, today's MCUs are full of peripherals and in most cases they are not used in the application, and from an engineering point of view this is a waste of money and energy, but on the...

Time can be calculated using the azimuth of the sun (aka solar time). Based on this idea, Tinkerman has built an unusual project called Solr. The concept is to translate the position of the sun into time presented on a vintage display. This new digital watch is freak enough to work only...

Chris @ chris3d.com build his own Attiny85 board:  The modularity of Arduinos is great, but after playing with them for a year or so, I wanted to start building things that needed a little more integration. I also wanted to design the components and programming around the actual...

Intelligent Power Module (IPM) board has been designed using FSBS5CH60 IC from Fairchild, which provides a fully-featured, high-performance inverter output stage for AC Induction, BLDC, and PMSM motors. These modules integrate optimized gate drive of the built-in IGBTs to minimize EMI...

Patrick Hood-Daniel explains the concept of ADC (Analog to Digital Conversion) as it relates to the STM32 ARM Microcontroller. How to use the ADC for ARM Microcontrollers Tutorial -...

A 2.5mm thick flexible smart watch with e-ink display, BT 4.0, and health sensors. by Nick Ames @ hackaday.io: This project aims to build a thin, flexible smartwatch. It's wrap-around display and touchscreen will allow it to display more data at a glance than current devices. Besides...

Tiny Wireless IMUs - 100% open & autonomous 9DoF motion sensor using BLE to control anything from your [objects] motion ! by Drix @ hackaday.io: We looked for tiny, autonomous, easy to use, and 9 Degrees of Freedom IMU, but none of the available wireless motion sensors were...
