Ping Hobbyelektronik has released a new open-source board called EPI-32U4. This tiny board is Arduino-compatible and offers USB Type-C connectivity, making it an excellent choice for makers and hobbyists. The EPI-32U4 board measures just 23mm x 13mm, making it one of the smallest Arduino-compatible boards available in the market. Despite its small size, the board […]

Turn Your Raspberry Pi Into a Standalone AVR/ESP Programmer with LEMPA


https://www.electronics-lab.com/turn-your-raspberry-pi-into-a-standalone-avr-esp-programmer-with-lempa/

One of the challenges of developing and producing microcontroller-based hardware projects in a repeatable, small/medium volume, is the amount of work it takes to flash the MCUs with the required firmware. Another side of the problem for designers who work with diverse types of microcontrollers is the number of different kinds of programmers they need […]

Arduino has announced a new set of boards to the Ardunino Nano family. The boards were on display last weekend at Maker Faire Bay Area in San Mateo at the Arduino booth. Banzi also delivered a talk on “The State of Arduino” at the Faire’s Center Stage. The new family of Arduino Nano boards includes: the Arduino Nano […]

Adafruit Metro 328 – An Arduino Uno Compatible Development Board


https://www.electronics-lab.com/adafruit-metro-328-arduino-uno-compatible-development-board/

The Adafruit Metro 328 development board is an alternative to the Arduino Uno with an equivalent and compatible board design. It’s designed and manufactured by Adafruit. The Metro 328 just like other Arduino Uno clones is also based on the famous Atmega 328P that has been used in various development boards and projects. The Metro […]

Three Ways to Make Arduino Works As A USB/TTL Converter


https://www.electronics-lab.com/three-ways-make-arduino-works-usbttl-converter/

Even if you have years working with electronics, you will still find some simple hacks that you never thought about before. Personally and to save money, when I was a student with a very limited budget I knew that my Arduino UNO can work as a USB/TTL(serial) converter. I used to remove the Atmega328P from […]

Getting Started With the ATMega328P
