A LASER TREATMENT TO IMPROVE PAPER ELECTRONICS

Electronics News Updates / By

NanoEngineers” research group at Iowa University have been devoting efforts to use graphene and its amazing properties in their sensors and other technologies. Graphene has many extraordinary properties. It is about 100 times stronger than the strongest steel. It conducts heat and electricity efficiently and is nearly transparent. Inspired by some recent projects about using inkjet printers to print […]

VERSATILE AND OPEN SOURCE LIPO BBATTERY BREADBOARD POWER SUPPLY 2

VERSATILE AND OPEN SOURCE LIPO BBATTERY BREADBOARD POWER SUPPLY

Electronics News Updates / By

Orlando Hoilett from Calvary Engineering LLC designed a  versatile Li-Po battery breadboard power supply and wrote an Instructables on it. This power supply outputs 3.3V to the breadboard and takes input from a single-cell LiPo battery. The breadboard power supply also has the ability to charge the battery without needing to separate it from the circuit board. More importantly, this

CH3330N – Small and Cheap USB-Serial Converter IC Needs No Crystal

Electronics News Updates / By

Recently the hobbyist market has seen the appearance of the Air602 low-cost ARM WiFi module. This module might be a potential competitor of ESP8266, another low-cost powerful WiFi module, that took the electronics hobbyists by storm long ago and is still extremely popular. But what’s more interesting about the Air602 module is the usage of a completely

Teardown of an Array 3711A 300W DC Electronic Load

Electronics News Updates / By

I have made many electronic loads in the past. For instance this simple harddrive cooler housed small dummy load, this more sophisticated constant current/constant programmable load and this heavy-duty electronic load that is capable of sinking over 1kW under peak load. In this blog post though, I am going to take a look inside an Array 3711A DC electronic load I recently purchased
