FT900 – flexible bridge between interfaces


https://www.electronics-lab.com/ft900-flexible-bridge-between-interfaces/

FT900 is 32bit RISC MCU developed for high speed, interface bridging tasks. FT900 provides a large amount of connectivity options. To name only a few, FT900 can: ● process data from parallel camera input and send them via Ethernet ● transform data from camera to create bitmap compatible with FT8xx (EVE) and send it through […]

L293D Motor Controller Tutorial


https://www.electronics-lab.com/l293d-motor-controller-tutorial/

Sooncheng @ instructables.com shows us how to control a DC motor using the L293D IC and an Arduino: L293D is a chip that enable us to control two motors together with only one Arduino board or other microcontrollers. However, I was having a project that required controlling four DC motors together. Recently i brought a L293D […]

Maurizio @ dev.emcelettronica.com has tipped us about his latest project. In this article he discuss how to build a simple toaster oven temperature profile controller using StickOS and CPUStick. This is the first part of the article. Using a highly-integrated microcontroller running “StickOS BASIC”, it is possible to quickly build a toaster oven temperature profile controller for performing […]

A development board for the STM32F042


https://www.electronics-lab.com/a-development-board-for-the-stm32f042/

Andy Brown designed a development board for the STM32F042 in the TSSOP20 package: This project came about because I’m using the STM32F042F6P6 (32Kb flash, 6Kb SRAM) in another project where I’m creating a USB device and the first thing I did is try to obtain a development board for it. I was hopeful that ST […]

Non-Contact Body Temperature Meter


https://www.electronics-lab.com/non-contact-body-temperature-meter/

One of the most commonly used medical instruments nowadays is the thermometer. The thermometer is used to monitor or measure the body temperature of a sick person. The idea of creating a thermometer started from a device called thermoscope, a thermometer without a scale. Several inventors developed it until Sir Thomas Allbutt invented the first […]
