One of the nicest amenities of interpreted programming languages is that you can test out the code that you’re developing in a shell, one line at a time, and see the results instantly. No matter how ...

2016 was a great year for Open Hardware. The Open Source Hardware Association released their certification program, and late in the year, a few silicon wizards met in Mountain View to show off the ...

What happens when you combine an Arduino-based microcontroller with a palm-sized aluminum box and clicky buttons? A fidget ...

Many microcontrollers have built-in ADCs (analog-to-digital converters), which means you can use a single device to both digitize analog signals and manipulate the results. Once the ADC digitizes a ...

Texas Instruments says it has shrunk the size of the smallest microcontroller unit in its industry with a new MCU the size of a black pepper flake. The MCU packaging is only 1.38 square millimeters in ...

Instrument designs featuring a digital display may benefit from a secondary display that provides an analog version of the displayed parameter. A bar-graph display provides an easily interpreted ...

In its introductory blog post, the company explains that today’s Raspberry Pis are already often used alongside a smaller microcontroller: The Raspberry Pi takes care of heavyweight computation, ...

Texas Instruments has officially unveiled the MSPM0C1104, which it claims to be the world's smallest microcontroller. This remarkable device measures a mere 1.38 mm², which is only slightly larger ...

When taking measurements from analog sensors located at long distances, voltage drops and noise can affect precision of the readings. Therefore, a voltage-to-current (V/I) module is needed to transmit ...

If you thought the Raspberry Pi's chip was dinky, well, get a load of the nattily named Texas Instruments MSPM0C1104, said to the world's smallest microcontroller or MCU and measuring a mere 1.38 mm².
