[Lee Adamson] is no stranger to classic computers. He recently picked up a Heathkit H11A which, as you might remember, is actually a PDP-11 from DEC. Well, technically, it is an LSI-11 but still. Like a proper LSI-11, the computer uses the DEC QBus. Unlike a lot of computers of its day, the H11 didn’t have a […]

WebUSB programmable FPGA development boards. Cloud-based synthesis. Until recently, FPGA development has suffered from a high barrier to entry for newcomers. In the past, development boards using Xilinx, Lattice, and Altera chipsets easily fetched $250-$2000 price tags. The hardware barrier has been all but eliminated by recent entrants, which include MojoBoard (https://alchitry.com/products/mojo-v3), the IceBreaker (https://www.crowdsupply.com/1bitsquared/icebreaker-fpga),

A leaked Intel roadmap reveals launch plans for Intel Core and Atom processors through the end of 2021. Of interest is a hybrid Lakefield processor design that combines a 10nm Ice Lake core and 4x Atom Tremont cores. The roadmap contains several surprises, like Intel’s plans for a market launch of its 10nm U- and Y-series Ice Lake chips, and also its
Over the last few articles, we have covered the use of ESP8266 boards for building several WiFi based projects. For today’s tutorial, we will look at it’s recently released successor; the ESP32. As mentioned in previous tutorials, ESP-12e module popularly referred as the nodeMCU came at a time where makers were struggling with the difficulties around the use of the ESP-01 modules. The ESP-01 modules were not breadboard
