LoRa-to-Ethernet Gateway


https://www.electronics-lab.com/lora-ethernet-gateway/

A WIZ750SR based device that allows sending and receiving messages over LoRa and LoRaWAN. I got some LoRa modules with SPI communication interface. One of the options it would have been to connect them to my Raspberry Pi. But, I didn’t really like the idea because I already have some stuff connected to my Raspberry […]

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 […]

Mini Isolated Power Supply is designed for CAN, RS-485, RS-422, RS-232, SPI, I2C, Low-Power LAN applications. The power supply provides +/- 5.50 V DC symmetrical outputs with load current 500mA from 5V DC input. The project is built using SN6505A IC from Texas instruments. The SN6505A is a low-noise, low-EMI push-pull transformer driver, specifically designed […]

The ezPixel is an Upcoming FPGA based WS2812B Controller Board


https://www.electronics-lab.com/ezpixel-upcoming-fpga-based-ws2812b-controller-board/

FPGAs are field programmable gate arrays which basically means they are reconfigurable hardware chips. FPGAs have found applications in different industries and engineering fields from the defence, telecommunications to automotive and several others but little application in the maker’s world. Mostly, as a result of being largely difficult and high cost as compared to the likes […]
