TinyUPS – Uninterruptible Power Supply based on ATtiny13A
https://www.electronics-lab.com/tinyups-uninterruptible-power-supply-based-attiny13a/
Power interruption has a lot of side effects on projects. Especially projects with heavy processing requirements, it could corrupt the memory of the microprocessor/microcontroller, or lead to significant damage to other parts of the device. To mitigate this, several UPS solutions have been built, especially by folks in the Raspberry Pi community and as a […]

The STTS22H is an ultra-low-power, high accuracy, digital temperature sensor offering high performance over the entire operating temperature range. The STTS22H is a band gap temperature sensor coupled with an A/D converter, signal processing logic and an I²C/SMBus 3.0 interface all in a single ASIC. This sensor is housed in a small 2 x 2 […]
BPW34 Gamma Ray Detector
https://www.electronics-lab.com/bpw34-gamma-ray-detector/
The usual approach to radiation detection is the use of a Geiger-Müller tube and its high voltage circuit requirements, but during a quick surf through the internet today, I came across this portable and “accurate looking” solution developed by Stefan Wagner, on EasyEDA. Rather than the Geiger Muller tube and its complex circuitry, the project […]

US-based technology Product development company, Earth People Technology, recently announced the launch of a DAC (digital to analog converter) breakout board that is based on the popular eight-bit MCP4901 DAC Chip. The new breakout board, in line with the nature of the products developed by the company, comes with breadboard compatibility which makes it easy […]
STMicroelectronics Expands Portfolio of FlightSense ToF Ranging Sensors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/stmicroelectronics-expands-portfolio-flightsense-tof-ranging-sensors/
STMicroelectronics announced the release of the VL53L3CX, a capability expansion of the company’s FlightSense ToF ranging sensors, with a patented histogram algorithm. The new sensor measures object ranges from 2.5cm to 3m, remaining unaffected by color or reflectance. The histogram algorithm increases cover-glass crosstalk immunity and allow real-time smudge compensation preventing external contamination from adversely […]
Raspberry Pi 4 Beta Firmware Brings True USB Boot for High-Speed Storage – no SD Card needed
https://www.electronics-lab.com/raspberry-pi-4-beta-firmware-brings-true-usb-boot-high-speed-storage/
One important feature of the Pi 3 flavor of the Raspberry Pi is the ability of the Pi to boot from a network server or a USB Mass storage device, rather than the, pretty much standard way of booting from an SD Card. However, while the Pi 4 featured several upgrades both physically and “OS-lly”, […]
