We head to CU to see what cool projects the students are making for their final projects.
We bid farewell to a SparkFun classic but open the door to the next chapter in project-based blog posts.
It's been a while; today we'll look at serialization using the ArduinoJSON library.
Let's go over when something like an Arduino or Teensy is more appropriate than using a Raspberry Pi.
Overview of a small, home-built cart to make soldering, reworking, and electrical testing easier at home
In a previous blog post we showed off a custom macro keyboard. In this week's post, we update it to make it wireless!
Remember that Magic Mirror? We now have a tutorial surrounding it, and we've done some super sweet formatting with CSS! Check it out!
Measure the ambient temperature of the room with either the TMP117 or TMP102!
Let's take a look at the pros and cons of traditional mechanical relays vs solid state relays.
I've been crafting a web interface to update an ESP32 using BLE. Check out the tutorial!
Grab some parts, strap a servo on it, and you'll be reflowing solder in no time!
No, we're not talking about hiding in bushes with long zoom lenses waiting to see what Tom Cruise is wearing today...
The current pandemic is creating havoc all over. Supply chain impacts might not be instantly apparent, but manufacturers closing is just the tip of the iceberg.
A short look back at a test-fixture designed to increase efficiency for future development.
Discussing what thermal resistance is, how it’s used for thermal management, and how to maximize the life of your project.
A project for keeping track of the days when it's anything but easy.
Here's how I built a printer enclosure for my Taz 6.
Using encoder feedback to control two DC motors, this robot is self-correcting!
Facing the daunting task of wiring together 192 of the same I2C sensor inspired a creative solution.
Comparing analog and digital temperature sensors TMP36, TMP102 and TMP117. Which is better?
Oops -- I missed the "in-person", and thought that it was going to be via one of the e-meeting things. I won't be able to attend in-person,…
I presume that the "5:30-6:30 pm" is MOUNTAIN DAYLIGHT TIME (i.e. "Denver") time.
Ah we also wish there was a Qwiic Connector on the new Pi 5! Hopefully we can make this happen in the future!
We will! The chemical makeup of the battery is different from any other type of battery we've carried in the past so we want to make sure we…
Is sparkfun also getting the little RTC batteries with the cord attached for the RPI5?
A couple of "conspicuous by their absence": First, our friends over at Adafruit have a LOT of items that have…
I finally had some time late yesterday to watch a couple of the videos on YouTube that reviewed the "pre-release" samples of the RPi 5 that…
OK, found an "implication of an answer" -- over on Adafruit's "New Products" list is [Raspberry Pi 5 RTC…
I'm kind of "chomping at the bit" to know more about the RTC battery requirements for the RPi 5. From the pics on the "official documents"…
Does this possibly hint at the stock may be in by then to fulfill the pre-orders?!? <fingers crossed!> or are you using samples you already…
