How to Interface Flux Sensor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/interface-flux-sensor/
This tutorial is going to teach you the basics on using Flux Sensor: It is a flex sensor which is 2.2 inches in length. This sensor works by bending the sensor itself. As the sensor is being flexed or bent, the resistance across the sensor increases. The greater the angle of bending, the greater the […]
An Introduction to LiPo Batteries
https://www.electronics-lab.com/an-introduction-to-lipo-batteries/
Average Man Vs Raspberry Pi has a handy article on LiPo batteries. LiPo batteries – to fear or not to fear? Up until very recently, I was petrified. Whilst most other competitors at Pi Wars 2015 were happily using this angry and volatile battery technology, Average Man over here was assuming he was playing it safe using heavy NiMH […]

Basics of the I2C Communication Protocol
https://www.electronics-lab.com/basics-i2c-communication-protocol/
circuitbasics.com talks about the I2C protocol, it’s use and it’s advantages and disadvantages. I2C combines the best features of SPI and UARTs. With I2C, you can connect multiple slaves to a single master (like SPI) and you can have multiple masters controlling single, or multiple slaves. This is really useful when you want to have more than […]

Gustavo Reynaga shows us how to you can flash your ESP-01 and esp-201 with Arduino IDE and upload any other firmware with ESP flash tools. Hi folks, now I’ll teach you how to make your programmer to the ESP-01 and ESP-201, (perhaps serve with other models) using an Arduino UNO, a few cables and optionally a button […]
Basics of the SPI Communication Protocol
https://www.electronics-lab.com/basics-spi-communication-protocol/
circuitbasics.com talks about the SPI serial communications protocol: One unique benefit of SPI is the fact that data can be transferred without interruption. Any number of bits can be sent or received in a continuous stream. With I2C and UART, data is sent in packets, limited to a specific number of bits. Start and stop conditions define the beginning […]
