At this week’s International Image Sensor Workshop (IISW 2013, Snowbird, Utah, June 12-16 2013), imec and Holst Centre presented a large-area fully-organic photo detector array fabricated on a flexible substrate. The imager is sensitive in the wavelength range suitable for x-ray imaging applications. Because of their very high absorption coefficient, organic semiconductors allow extremely thin …
So this is a 4×4 projected capacitive touch board using Atmega32u4 and back-fire LEDs for each button. I want to send the gerberas to Seeed sooon so any advice/feedback is very much appreciated. It fits Sob 100x80mm but the top acrylic will sit right on top of the PCB as the dielectric properties of whatever …
In the usual Kuzyatech fashion, when something breaks, we must take it apart. Today, one of the ”early adopter” GU10 style LED lamps decided to fail mechanically: The power supply is wrapped in some tape. But that does not preclude a bunch of exposed mains line points from being visible All part numbers sanded off. …
Do you think programming is difficult? Did you think Robotics is just for programmers? We don´t think so. Our aim is to make robotics accessible to everyone. At Mini robots we have developed mOwayduino, an open source robot, based on Arduino technology. mOwayduino robot is ready to program, with multiple built-in sensors, motors and more. You don´t …
I’m a programmer/systems architect by education and by the way of winning bread, but somehow I got infected with the electronics bug 3 years ago – had a side job to upgrade the firmware of a LED display, got into microcontrollers, then made myself comfortable in analog. Dave Jones has been saying in his videos …
With LEDs that require only one pin, you can do a lot with even just a 6-pin microcontroller! A touch controlled light with 4xWS2812 RGB LEDs and ATtiny10. This is a small hardware project which utilizes the light_WS2812 library and the TinyTouchLib to implement a touch-button controlled RGB-LED light. Only two output pins of the …
−Inhaltsverzeichnis Thermometer width DS18S20 Hardware Software final Download Thermometer width DS18S20 In my new Dacia Duster is missing unfortunately an outside temperature indication. A finished thermometer with LCD did not separate from there while the contrast with sunlight usually particularly is. I had still alphanumeric LED display in red there for this project in the …
I develop this MCP23017 Breakout Board to interface a 2×16 LCD display with any microcontroller using a standard I2C bus. Typical 2×16 displays needs at least 6 lines to work (when working in 4-byte mode); in some cases, this will be prohibited for some microcontrollers. With this board, you can control it with only two …
Write messages and show animations on this palm-sized heart-shaped LED display. Works seamlessly with Arduino, and requires only three pins to control. Want a heart matrix of your very own? You can buy this DIY kit for $17.95 on the product page. How does it work? Three shift registers control two LED matrices, each with …

With the proliferation of high-brightness LEDs designed to provide replacement lamps for commercial and domestic lighting there comes an equal, if not greater, proliferation of power supply solutions. With hundreds of products from dozens of manufacturers, it becomes a question of how to make sense of all the permutations of input / output voltages and …
