Silicon Labs have introduced a tiny 3 mm square hybrid TV tuner chip which supports reception of all worldwide terrestrial and cable TV transmission standards. According to its preliminary data sheet its design eliminates the need for an external balun, LNAs, SAW filters, and inductive power supply filtering. Some competing TV tuner solutions also eliminate the

Today’s tutorial is a bit different: I’m going to show you how to make your ethernet shield wireless! You can find many Wi-fi shields for Arduino: starting from the official one, up to shields based on Microchip’s ICs.] Sometimes however it could be easier (and maybe cheaper!) to connect an Arduino to the Wi-fi network using your
