I’m always a little surprised that we don’t see more ARM-based projects. Of course, we do see some, but the volume isn’t what I’d expect given that low-level ARM chips are cheap, capable, low power, ...

Before opening the Arduino software, wire up the Arduino according to the circuits page using the 8MHz minimalist breadboard circuit but with a 10k pull-up resistor on the reset pin (physical pin 1).

Makers, developers and hobbyists that are looking for a virtual breadboard might be interested in a new application and service created by James Caska based in Amsterdam. The PCB Direct virtual ...

Hardware hacking often seems like black magic to the uninitiated, which is why 123D Circuits is so cool: it allows you to learn electronics using a virtual Arduino board and breadboard without blowing ...

Microaware’s Sandwizz, a schematic-configurable breadboard, hit 120% of its funding goal on Kickstarter on July 19, 2024. The KiCad freeware schematic capture tool is used to configure an active ...

Here’s a no-PCB Arduino that doesn’t obscure the DIP footprint of the AVR chip. It’s built on an ATmega88 chip, and includes a programming header, reset button, a couple of filtering caps, and an LED.

Students teachers or children looking to learn more about programming and coding may be interested in a new online breadboard simulator called MakeCode for makers. Which allows you to create projects ...

OpenPLC is an open-source industrial controls platform that allows the transformation of popular microcontrollers into a programmable logic controller (PLC). OpenPLC is a fully functional open-source ...
