Update! Here is a post with the BOM for the project. Sometime ago I came across the Arducam Mini which is quite a nice camera module from UCTronics. It is a small PCB with a two megapixel OmniVision OV2640 sensor, an interchangeable lens and an FPGA to do the heavy lifting of image processing and JPEG […]

Arduino M0 Pro The Arduino M0 Pro —initially called Zero Pro— board is a major revision of the Arduino line as it is the first Arduino board to feature a debugger. The board is designed around the 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+ SAMD21 from Atmel and built in Italy. The EDBG chip from Atmel provides the debugging capabilities. The SAMD21 MCU features

Digilent recently released a new FPGA development board. The Arty board. The Arty is designed to be used exclusively with Xilinx Vivado, and designed specifically for use with microblaze. This tutorial covers how to use the out of he box design that ships loaded into Arty’s Quad-SPI Flash, with I/O and UART. To view the

Many years ago, I think it was in 1997, I stepped into an interesting circuit on a book about high voltage [1]. It was the diagram of a simple “lightning flash counter” intended to help in designing lightning protections on power lines. The description was very brief, but following the bibliography reference, I could find

Interest in triple-level cell (TLC) NAND flash is growing and the high density flash memory technology could have cost benefits over single-level NAND in SSDs, but only if endurance and retention questions marks are addressed. For US-based NAND flash controller supplier Silicon Motion Technology the answer is increased error detection in the flash controller. It has employed three levels of
