by Graham Prophet @ edn-europe.com: Sensor and mixed-signal IC specialist ams (Graz, Austria) has applied optical detection techniques to produce a sensor capable of accurate heart rate measurement; the company says its device is the first “total solution for 24/7 heart rate measurement for wearables”. AS7000 is the first in what is to be a family […]

DIY Motorized Combo Lock Cracking Device


https://www.electronics-lab.com/diy-motorized-combo-lock-cracking-device/

Combo Breaker is a motorized, battery powered, 3D printed, Arduino-based combination lock cracking device. It is portable, open source, 3D models provided, and exploits a new technique I’ve discovered for cracking combination locks in 8 attempts or less, but in an even more exciting, automated fashion.

Solar Cells Made Obsolete – 3D rectennas aim at 40-to-90% efficiency


https://www.electronics-lab.com/solar-cells-made-obsolete-3d-rectennas-aim-at-40-to-90-efficiency/

R. Colin Johnson @ eetimes.com: PORTLAND, Ore.–Now before you get all excited by the headline, which is not click-bait according to the researchers, a new kind of nanoscale rectenna (half antenna and half rectifier) can convert solar and infrared into electricity, plus be tuned to nearly any other frequency as a detector. The invention was made […]

Samsung launches industry’s first 12Gb LPDDR4 DRAM


https://www.electronics-lab.com/samsung-launches-industrys-first-12gb-lpddr4-dram/

by Samsung: Samsung Electronics announced that it is mass producing the industry’s first 12-gigabit (Gb) LPDDR4 (low power, double data rate 4) mobile DRAM, based on its advanced 20-nanometer (nm) process technology. The newest LPDDR4 is expected to significantly accelerate the adoption of high capacity mobile DRAM worldwide. The 12Gb LPDDR4 brings the largest capacity and […]

One case – over 100 possibilities of usage


https://www.electronics-lab.com/one-case-over-100-possibilities-of-usage/

We speak about the practical case CTK110EU full of high quality CrV tools sufficient for majority of common operations. CTK110EU tools set might be easily called as “all-in-one”. Naturally, such all-in-one solution won´t help in all situations which we may face at production or servicing, but very probably it is more than suitable for a […]

Laser Data Transmission
