Qualcomm's buying Arduino – what it means for makers
Qualcomm's buying Arduino – what it means for makers
Qualcomm just announced they're acquiring Arduino, the company that introduced a whole generation of tinkerers to microcontrollers and embedded electronics.
The Uno R3 was the first microcontroller board I owned. Over a decade ago, I blinked my first LED with an Uno; the code for that is actually still up on my GitHub.

The board also includes an 8MHz main crystal and a 32.768KHz RTC crystal. For programming, it includes a dual USB Type-C interface, a USB...
wafer.space lets you design your custom silicon just for $7 per die (Crowdfunding)
wafer.space has launched its first pooled silicon fabrication run on Crowd Supply, called the GF180MCU Run 1, which enables designers, engineers, and companies to create 1,000 custom ASICs using GlobalFoundries’ 180 nm mixed-signal process. Each slot provides a fixed 3.88 × 5.07 mm (19.67 mm²) die area replicated 1,000 times, meaning you will receive 1000 chips, with options for bare dies or chip-on-board packaging. The GF180MCU process supports 5 metal layers, MIM capacitors (~2.0 fF/µm²), poly and high-res poly resistors, and standard-Vt MOS devices. Users can handle their own pad ring, ESD, and I/O layout while wafer.space manages fabrication, dicing,...
Недорогой одноплатный компьютер Luckfox Lyra Zero W на SoC Rockchip RK3506B с 512 МБ ОЗУ, 256 SPI flash памяти, разъемом MIPI DSI, WiFi 6 и Bluetooth 5.2 за $17.50
Luckfox Lyra Zero W — это компактный одноплатный компьютер (SBC) построенный на базе 3-х ядерного процессора Rockchip RK3506B Cortex-A7, оснащенный разъемом MIPI DSI, модулями WiFi 6 и Bluetooth 5.2, и предназначен для разработки интеллектуальных беспроводных панелей (HMI). Плата выпускается в форм-факторе размера Raspberry Pi Zero. На плате распаяно 512 МБ ОЗУ, 256 МБ SPI Flash-памяти, слот для карт microSD, два порта USB-C, разъем USB 2.0 и 40-контактный GPIO разъем совместимый с Raspberry Pi. Необходимо обратить внимание на то, что на плате отсутствует порт HDMI. Вывод графики доступен на LCD панель подключаемую по интерфейсу MIPI/DSI или шине SPI, например как Подключение...

ESP32-C5-EVB OSHW board with 3. MOD-ESP32-C5 OSHW board with 4. ESP32-C5-DevKit-Lipo OSHW board with 5. ESP32-C6-DevKit-Lipo OSHW board with
The latest Raspberry Pi OS images are now based on Debian 13 “Trixie”
Since Debian 13 “Trixie” was released last August, it was just a matter of time until Raspberry Pi OS followed. Raspberry Pi announced the update from Bookworm to Trixie a few days ago. The new Raspberry Pi OS images get the new and updated packages from Debian 13, and features like 64-bit time support to solve the Y2K38 bug. However, as Simon Long, UX engineer at Raspberry Pi, points out, there have been fewer changes in newer versions of Debian, and most changes in the new version of Pi OS are cosmetic, although there are some interesting under-the-hood changes as...
Chair 2 – Merging the mundane with the uncanny
Developed during a residency at New Lab (Detroit), Chair 2 explores the mundane with the uncanny, where an ordinary chair "comes alive" through motion.
