The IoT Project Builder “myDevices” Has Added Arduino Support


https://www.electronics-lab.com/iot-project-builder-mydevices-added-arduino-support/

“myDevices”, creators of IoT platform Cayenne, announced in a press release a partnership with Arduino to integrate Arduino support in their system. The partnership seems to be with Arduino SRL not with Arduino LLC. The currently supported Arduino boards, beside variety of sensors and actuators, are: Arduino Due Arduino Leonardo Arduino Mega Arduino Nano Arduino […]

D7S Vibration Sensor From Omron


https://www.electronics-lab.com/d7s-vibration-sensor-omron/

Omron announced a new seismic sensor and claims it’s the world’s smallest in size. D7S sensor is a MEMS 3-axis acceleration sensor featuring OMRON’s unique SI value calculation algorithm, which has a high correlation with the seismic intensity scale that indicates the magnitude of an earthquake and provides higher-precision judgment of seismic intensity scales. The […]

Arduino Geiger–Müller counter with LCD display


https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-geiger-muller-counter-lcd-display/

Bob tipped us with his latest project. It’s a custom Arduino shield able to communicate with a Geiger-Muller counter and display data on a LCD display. The data are displayed in two layouts: bar graph of the pulses in one minute interval and histogram of the gathered data. In the previous posts I’ve described a […]

Disconnect circuit for 12 volt lead acid and lithium batteries


https://www.electronics-lab.com/50967-2/

KA7OEI designed a circuit that disconnects the battery when it over-discharges. He writes: The avoidance of overcharging is usually pretty easy to avoid: Just use the appropriate charging system – but overdischarge is a bit more difficult, particularly if the battery packs in question don’t have a “protection board” with them. Lead acid batteries (almost) […]

Using Bluetooth LE in Products


https://www.electronics-lab.com/advices-using-bluetooth-le-products/

Jone Teel over Makezine walked through how to use BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy ), aka Bluetooth smart, in an electronic product. BLE, unlike classic Bluetooth, it’s not designed for big data transmission or streaming audio or video. BLE comes in SoC (System on Chip) ICs which combine a RF transceiver and a microcontroller running the […]

How to Upgrade Your ESP8266 SPI Flash to 4MB


https://www.electronics-lab.com/upgrade-esp8266-spi-flash-4mb-one/

ESP8266, the well known WiFi module contains an ESP8266EX SoC IC and an external SPI flash. This external SPI flash is used together with ESP8266EX to store user programs. The supported size of flash by ESP8266EX is up to 16MB but some of ESP8266 modules contain flash chips with low storage capacity like 512KB. In […]
