Tachyon – 120MHZ 32-bit Arduino Compatible Microcontroller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/tachyon-120mhz-32-bit-arduino-compatible-microcontroller/
The Tachyon is a new lightning-fast open-source Arduino Zero-compatible board developed by Rabid Prototypes, currently on Kickstarter for funding. It features a 32-bit ARM M4F processor running at 120MHz and contains 128K of RAM. The Tachyon’s pinout is nearly identical to both the Neutrino and Arduino Zero, making it a go-with replacement for practically any project using either one. The Tachyon is an open […]
The Fishino Piranha – A Development Board With 120MHz 32bit Microcontroller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/the-fishino-piranha-a-development-board-with-120mhz-32bit-microcontroller/
A few weeks ago Open Electronics announced their new “Fishino Piranha” board. It is one of the first boards to imitate the Arduino MKR. The Fishino Piranha follows with the release of their Uno-inspired “Fishino 32” board, which was released at the start of last year. The Piranha has the same 32-bit Microchip PIC32MX as the previous board with […]
DIY Adjustable Constant Load (Current & Power)
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/diy-adjustable-constant-load-current-power/
By GreatScottLab @ instructables.com In this project I will show you how I combined an Arduino Nano, a current sensor, an LCD, a rotary encoder and a couple of other complementary components in order to create an adjustable constant load. It features a constant current and power mode and can handle a maximum of 30V […]

Communication Between Two Arduinos Using NRF24L01
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/communication-between-two-arduinos-using-nrf24l01/
While building Arduino or any other microcontroller platform project over time the need will arise to establish communication between two of the Arduino boards or microcontrollers for data exchange and/or control. This communication could be achieved using either wired or wireless process. For wireless communication between devices, quite a number of options exist including WiFi, GSM/GPRS, […]
Exen Proto – A Tiny 32-bit Arduino Compatible Board
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/exen-proto-a-tiny-32-bit-arduino-compatible-board/
The Exen Mini was categorized as one of the world’s smallest 32-bit Arduino compatible boards that was launched by Nerdonic, although the board was able to get the job done in some areas it still had limited capacity, it had only 8 I/O pins. Based on the success and limitations of the Exen Mini, Nerdonic […]

An easy to solder Arduino and CircuitPython compatible module meant for simplifying the creation of your own custom circuit boards. The project is live on kickstarter. The SAMD HCC Module is an Arduino compatible, ready and easy to solder, surface mount programmable micro-controller module. Its purpose is to simplify the process of creating and building […]
Low-Power Arduino Weather Monitoring Station
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/low-power-arduino-weather-monitoring-station/
One of the downsides of using an Arduino board in projects is the fact that it comes with some other components which may not be needed after the code has been uploaded to the board. These peripherals consume a considerable amount of power which affects the overall power consumed by the project, thus increasing the rate at […]
Piksey – A Newcomer in the Battle of World’s Smallest Arduino Compatible Board
https://www.electronics-lab.com/news/piksey-a-newcomer-in-the-battle-of-worlds-smallest-arduino-compatible-board/
The World’s Smallest Arduino has been one of such title that is heavily contested by so many Arduino compatible boards. We have seen several boards that have claimed the title in one way or the other such as boards like pico, µduino, beetle, nerdonic or even digispark. µduino seems to be the world smallest Arduino compatible board among […]
