I’m reblogging from Core77 this interesting wearable project because I’d like to highlight the using of Arduino Lilypad board: Bio Circuit stems from our concern for ethical design and the creation of media-based interactions that reveal human interdependence with the environment. With each beat of the heart, Bio Circuit connects the wearer with the inner workings […]
The ZL70250 ultra-low-power radio frequency (RF) transceiver provides a wireless link in applications where power consumption is of primary importance. The transceiver’s ultra low-power requirements allow battery miniaturization or the use of energy-harvesting methods, enabling devices with an extremely small form factor. The availability of the transceiver in a CSP form factor combined with the

Description The bq2510x series of devices are highly integrated Li-Ion and Li-Pol linear chargers targeted at space-limited portable applications. The high input voltage range with input overvoltage protection supports low-cost unregulated adapters. The bq2510x has a single power output that charges the battery. A system load can be placed in parallel with the battery as

The entire manufacturing process (except for certain purchased components) [of Arduino boards] takes place in and around Strambino, Ivrea, in a context dominated by the small- and medium-sized companies that are typical of Italian industrial districts and of the “Made in Italy” phenomenon itself. Ivrea’s history is another interesting part of the picture. The city
The PicoScope 6000E 8-channel oscilloscope series has grown to include 4-channel versions, bringing very high-speed performance to the 4 or 8 analog channel, 16 digital channel oscilloscope world, with up to 5GSa/s real-time sampling and 4GSa deep memory Saelig Company, Inc. has introduced the 4-channel PicoScope 6000E Series 500MHz Oscilloscopes, which provide 8 to 12 bits of

Description The OPA1662 (dual) and OPA1664 (quad) series of bipolar-input operational amplifiers achieve a low 3.3 nV/√Hz noise density with an ultralow distortion of 0.00006% at 1 kHz. The OPA1662 and OPA1664 series of op amps offer rail-to-rail output swing to within 600 mV with 2-kΩ load, which increases headroom and maximizes dynamic range.
TI aims at audio with low-noise low-power op amps Continue Reading
When most Chromeboxes nowadays are targetted towards consumer market and educational fields, AOPEN designed the smallest enterprise-ready Chromebox for digital signage, corporate, and kiosks. This device is designed to run 24/7 in tough conditions and can handle shocks and vibrations without any problem. The Rockchip RK3288 powered Chromebox Mini may perform sluggishly if used as a mini PC, but this should

There was a point in time, excruciatingly brief, in which desktop computers often had a large “TURBO” button on their front panel. Some even featured an LED display that would indicate the current CPU frequency, providing visual conformation that your machine had leaped to a blistering 66 MHz. The 486 that [someyob] is restoring had
