Power Analysis: Probing WS2812 RGB LEDs
https://www.electronics-lab.com/power-analysis-probing-ws2812-rgb-leds/
Power analysis is a technique to probe the inner workings of an integrated circuit by measuring changes in the supply current. Tim writes: Whenever a logic gate switches, it will cause a tiny current spike that can be measured externally. By inspecting the temporal variation, especially in reaction to an external signal, it is often […]

The Launchpad – A $2 Arduino Nano alternative
https://www.electronics-lab.com/the-launchpad-a-2-arduino-nano-alternative/
Boards like the Arduino and Raspberry Pi have their origins, deep in education, either maker education as a way for people to express themselves (Arduino) or an affordable and portable way for people to learn about computers and programming (Raspberry Pi). The culture of creating solutions targetted at beginners, is one that is quickly fading […]
Aledia – Pioneering nanowire microLED’s on 300 mm Wafers
