The article will guide any electronics beginner on how an ATtiny24/44/84 can be constructed. This is quite a simple circuit and the components involved are also limited in number. The article will ...

In recent years, integrated platforms equipped with microcontrollers (with Arduino probably being the best-known brand) have been gaining popularity.

The automotive electronics industry continues to expand its use of 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs). With the MCU being the cornerstone of electronic control modules (ECMs), from safety ...

This project pairs a set of 8-bit microcontrollers with a 433-MHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band transmitter/receiver. The FS1000A RF transmitter has a range of up to 200 m; the ...

Until recently, microcontroller-based systems using a liquid crystal display (LCD) output device required a separate driver device. Now, Microchip has announced its new PIC16F946 microcontroller, ...

This week, Intel and Arduino are releasing their first product pushed directly on the education market, the Arduino/Genuino 101 board powered by the Intel Curie module. The Arduino/Genuino 101 is the ...

Coping with the heat generated by electronic components is a never-ending problem. The era of the discrete transistor, promising low-power circuit designs, has largely been superseded by ...

RF Digital has released a fully FCC and CE-compliant 2.4GHz ULP wireless module in 15 by 15 by 3mm form factor powered by the nRF24LE1 ultra low power single chip transceiver, from wireless specialist ...
