With the advent of IoT and the proliferation of connected embedded devices, one of the biggest challenges in developing competitive IoT solutions is the ability to bring intelligence at the Edge of the IoT networks. Edge computing is crucial in IoT applications as it paves the way for faster real-time inference by embedding computation capability in on-premise […]

XYNX (pronounced ikz-sync) is being launched on Crowdsupply by Fairwaves. it is based on the success of the Octopack SDR (software-defined radio) and the feedback the firm received from the original Octopack users. It is designed for situations or use cases that involve large band of spectrum monitoring or massive MIMO system and it comes […]

Microsoft has announced a $249 “Vision AI Developer Kit, aimed at AI edge developers using Azure IoT Edge and Azure Machine Learning. The kit features an 8MP, 4K camera which runs Linux on Qualcomm’s 10nm, AI-enabled QCS603 SoC. The Vision AI Developer Kit incorporates Qualcomm’s Vision Intelligence Platform, which is infused into its QCS603 SoC, with Microsoft’s Azure IoT Edge service, built on […]

In this tutorial i am going to count the number of rising and falling edges of a square wave signal that is input to the pic microcontroller. The rising and falling edges are useful in generating time delays from external clock sources. They can be used to determine the frequency of the square wave input […]

Automotive lighting as an important safety and popular design feature in vehicles has evolved rapidly in the past years. Now, Nichia Corporation and Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) start a collaboration to add further momentum to this evolution. Together, they are developing a high-definition (HD) light engine with more than 16,000 micro-LEDs for front light applications. Unlike current […]

Here is a simple project on how to control fan or dc motor speed with microchip pic16f877 microcontroller. There are numerous ways to control the speed of motor(or fan). Varying current, voltage and resistance etc. But when it comes to controlling the speed using microcontrollers. Then the PWM (Pulse width modulation) technique is most effective […]

Texas Instruments’ power-path management solution features 20 mA termination and 1 A boost operation Texas Instruments’ BQ25619 integrates charge, a boost converter, and voltage protection in a single device. It offers ultra-low termination current for switching chargers to charge wearable devices by full-battery capacity. The BQ25619 low quiescent current reduces battery leakage to 6 µA in ship-mode, which conserves […]

Specs for Intel’s NUC 8 rugged mini PC and 3.5-inch dashboard have been released. The fanless NUC 8, code-named Chaco Canyon, runs Windows or Linux on low-power (6W TDP) dual-core and 1.1 GHz/2.4GHz Celeron N3350 from Apollo Lake with dual HDMI ports, 4GB RAM, soldered down 64GB eMMC, and M.2 22 x 80 key M slot for […]

Recently i was working with 8-bit pic16f877 microcontroller and i want to place program code at a specific rom(read only memory) location. I was working with xc8 compiler and mplabx ide.  Previously i did this same thing many times while using c18 c compiler. C18 compiler uses #pragma code directives to accomplish this task. But when i […]

The internet as we knew it, a few years back, was being run by humans; the majority of everything that happens over the internet – the messages, the data, the communication was between people. But this is changing gradually; a new category of devices that do not have any communication between humans is beginning to […]
