One of the limitations of the small 8 bit microcontrollers like the Atmel ATMega family adopted by the Arduino board, is the reduced number of I/O ports. Among the main advantages of these ...

Evidence of a larger push for simple, instant flashing to microcontrollers without an installed IDE can also be found in the Tessel, a Wi-Fi-enabled board that has made twice its crowdfunding goal ...

The organization has introduced the Raspberry Pi Pico, a $4 board meant to offer a gentle entry point for microcontrollers. Think of it more as a complement to a Pi aimed at tasks like analog input.

The MicroPython v1.23 release, with its AMP support, will be available for a range of popular multi-core microcontroller boards. These include the Arduino GIGA R1 WiFi, Portenta H7, and Nicla Vision.

An EEPROM can store data permanently unless you erase or overwrite it and won’t lose the data when powered off. Some microcontrollers like Arduino have very limited internal storage space, so an ...

The Arduino Wire library is a core aspect of Arduino's integrated development environment, or IDE, and is a must-have if you're using sensors or extra microcontrollers in your project.

Nanode is designed to work like an Arduino, but is made specifically for Internet-connected projects. It features the same ATmega328 processor that the Arduino Uno uses, and you can program it ...

Effects pedals: for some an object of overwhelming addiction, but for many, an opportunity to hack. Anyone who plays guitar (or buys presents for someone who does) knows of the infinite choice of p… ...

Best known for its open source microcontrollers that have been wildly embraced by the developer community, Arduino now has its sights firmly set on the enterprise world. Specifically, the company ...
