uArt- A small Solution For a Big Problem


https://www.electronics-lab.com/uart-small-solution-big-problem/

Coming soon to Crowd Supply is the ultimate USB-UART converter. μArt is a device that offers safe and reliable USB-to UART conversion. The voltage levels, electric potentials, and communication speeds are no longer a concern, and it can be used for data exchange or for Programming Arduino or ESP. μArt was designed for enthusiasts and […]

EMB-2610 Pico-ITX SBC Runs Linux and comes with Touch Panel


https://www.electronics-lab.com/estones-new-emb-2610-pico-itx-single-board-computer-runs-linux-comes-7-10-touch-panel/

Ohio based company, Estone Technology (AKA Habey) has updated the product page for the new EMB-2610 Pico-ITX SBC. The EMB-2610 follows earlier Habey Pico-ITX SBCs such as last year’s i.MX6 UL powered EMB-2200 and i.MX6 based EMB-2230. This time Estone has used a 14nm Intel Atom SoC. Rather than going with Apollo Lake, they used the quad-core, 1.92GHz Atom x5-Z8350 […]

FTDI USB-to-serial converters to drive SPI devices


https://www.electronics-lab.com/ftdi-usb-serial-converters-drive-spi-devices/

Scott W Harden writes: The FT232 USB-to-serial converter is one of the most commonly-used methods of adding USB functionality to small projects, but recently I found that these chips are capable of sending more than just serial signals. With some creative programming, individual output pins can be big-banged to emulate a clock, data, and chip […]

The PX3-SE SoC gives the module […]

PIC18 Q10 Product Family – PIC® MCUs for Closed-loop Control


https://www.electronics-lab.com/pic18-q10-product-family-pic-mcus-closed-loop-control/

Real-time control systems usually are closed-loop control systems where one has a tight time window to gather data, process that data, and update the system. If the time window is missed, then the stability of the system is degraded. This reduced control can be catastrophic to some applications, such as power conversion and advanced motor […]

Sensirion, the expert in environmental sensing, presents the new ultra-low power humidity sensor SHTC3 for mobile and battery-driven applications. The SHTC3 is a digital humidity and temperature sensor optimized for battery-driven applications and high-volume consumer electronics. The sensor has been designed to overcome conventional limits in size and power consumption in order to fulfill current […]

Bode Analyzer using STM32F407 Discovery board


https://www.electronics-lab.com/bode-analyzer-using-stm32f407-discovery-board/

Debraj shares his project details of a Bode Analyzer using STM32F407. He writes: Frequency domain analysis is very important to know more about any system/ circuit or transfer function that we deal with. And the first thought comes to our mind about frequency domain analysis is “Bode plot“. Bode plot is a combination plot of […]
