Researchers at RMIT University have developed a new kind of artificial intelligence technology that works by imitating the way a human brain processes visual information. It promises to bring together imaging, processing, machine learning, and memory in one single electronic chip powered by light. This nanoscale advancement links the core software needed to drive artificial intelligence with image-capturing hardware in a […]

Texas Instruments TPS92610-Q1 Automotive Single-Channel LED Driver is a simple and ideal solution to deliver constant current for a single LED string with full LED diagnostics. The device operates from an automotive car battery. The TPS92610-Q1 addresses different requirements using the TPS9261x-Q1, TPS9263x-Q1, and TPS9283x-Q1 devices within the one-fails–all-fail feature. The TPS92610-Q1 devices are AEC-Q100 […]

Step 1: The Beginning Last week I decided to make a classic Arduino clone with an ATMEGA328P-PU. I seemed to be so easy and quick but a very bad surprise for me: I odered the cheaper ATMEGA328-PU (non P!!) that is to say: non pico power. The difference: this IC needs a bit more energy […]

AMD has announced their new Ryzen Embedded V2000 processors with 7nm fabricated Zen 2 cores. They have designed four new processors for embedded devices. Ryzen Embedded V2000 doubles the multi-threaded performance-per-watt and offers up to 30 percent better single-thread CPU performance compared to the previous-gen V1000. Also, the graphics performance is expected to have a 40 percent boost. The Ryzen Embedded […]

The Broadcom® AFBR-S4N33C013 is a single-silicon photo-multiplier (SiPM) used for ultra-sensitive precision measurement of single photons. The active area is 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm. A high packing density of single chips is achieved using through-silicon-via (TSV) technology and a chip-sized package (CSP). Larger areas can be covered by tiling multiple AFBR-S4N33C013 CSPs almost without any edge losses. The […]

Introduction The following diagram shows the system schematic of the Smart Plant Feeder. It contains the several major blocks: ATmega 323 is the CPU of the system. 5 VDC power supplier: an adaptor first transforms 110 VAC 60 Hz into 9 VDC; then a regulator keeps VCC stable at 5 VDC. A crystal of 32KHz […]

Onion Corporation, the company best known for its computing and IoT connectivity devices is currently crowdfunding their LiDAR depth camera system named the Onion Tau. Onion Tau Camera is a 3D depth-sensing camera. It is capable of producing 3D depth data rather than color frames. The company claims it to be a USB-based and plug-and-play 3D camera. It requires […]

So, today we have a real-world issue that you probably deal with too. A lot of people hate driving at night. It is darker, more monotonous, and difficult to see in a distance. Some people totally avoid it, sometimes even missing events they want to be a part of, just because the night drives make them feel […]

SG3525 PWM module is a great tool for every hobbyist. This circuit can be used in various applications such as switching power supply, DC-DC converter, DC motor speed controller, LED dimer, High voltage power supply, solenoid driver, and electronic DC load.  This low-cost pulse width modulator control circuit offers improved performance. The circuit has various options […]

Board Design For part of my final project I want to make my own USB audio recording device. So I’ll try to develop all the necessary electronics this week. I have the analog circuitry I need from inputs week. But I don’t have a board ready to go with a USB-capable microcontroller (bit-banging will not suffice, […]
